Within an hour&#8217;s drive or cycle from Trento, you can reach some of the most interesting \u2014 and least touristy \u2014 of them all.<\/p>\n<h3>Castel Beseno<\/h3>\n<p>In the Vallagarina, about thirty kilometres from Trento, this is the largest castle in Trentino. Its position on a rocky spur dominating the valley entrance is simply dramatic. The visit takes around ninety minutes and includes towers, noble halls and a display of arms and armour. The approach path from the car park is part of the experience.<\/p>\n<h3>Castel Stenico<\/h3>\n<p>In the Valle delle Giudicarie to the northwest of Trento, it is less well known but splendidly restored. Its series of medieval frescoed rooms is one of the best preserved in the region. The surrounding landscape of meadows and forest makes the journey worthwhile on its own.<\/p>\n<h3>Castel Thun<\/h3>\n<p>Near Ton in Val di Non, this is one of the best-preserved castles in Europe. It has belonged to the same family for seven hundred years, and much of the original furnishings \u2014 beds, kitchens, armouries \u2014 are still in place. The atmosphere is unlike a conventional museum: you feel like a guest in a private home from another century.<\/p>\n<h3>Castel Caldes<\/h3>\n<p>Also in Val di Non, it is smaller but captivating for its panoramic position and the temporary exhibitions it hosts each summer.<\/p>\n<h3>Practical tips<\/h3>\n<p>Castel Beseno is reachable by train to Calliano and then by bicycle. The others require a car, but the roads are scenic and the drive is part of the pleasure. If you plan to visit several castles, the <strong>Trentino Card<\/strong> covers admission to many of them \u2014 worth comparing against individual ticket prices for a multi-day stay.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Trentino has one of the highest concentrations of castles per square kilometre in Italy.
