Ledro

Ledro is a municipality located in the Trentino region of northern Italy. It is situated in the Ledro Valley, an area known for its natural beauty and the pristine Lake Ledro. The municipality was formed in 2010 through the merger of several smaller comuni, creating a larger administrative entity that encompasses the valley's diverse communities.

The economy of Ledro is historically linked to agriculture, particularly the cultivation of grapes and olives, as well as forestry. In recent decades, tourism has become increasingly significant, attracting visitors with its scenic landscapes, hiking trails, and water-based activities on Lake Ledro. The lake itself is a popular destination for swimming, sailing, and fishing, and its shores are dotted with charming villages.

Archaeological discoveries in the area, notably the Bronze Age pile-dwelling settlement on the eastern shore of Lake Ledro, highlight the long human history of the valley. This prehistoric site, a UNESCO World Heritage site, offers insights into ancient life and is a significant attraction for those interested in history. The municipality actively promotes its cultural heritage and natural attractions.
