Weekend in Andalo

How to spend 2 days in Andalo — a Friday-to-Sunday plan covering the highlights without the tourist-trap detours. Built from real attraction data.

Friday Evening

Arrive and Settle In

Friday evening is for arriving, checking in, and getting oriented. Keep it simple — a short walk to get your bearings, then dinner near the hotel.

Parco delle Terme di Andalo

Free 100m from centre

Large public park with a playground, benches, and a small stream running through it, popular for picnics and short walks.

Tip: Go early morning to see deer grazing near the edges; the park has free public BBQ grills (bring charcoal).

Andalo Life Market

Free 100m from centre

Weekly outdoor market held in Piazza Centrale, selling local cheeses, cured meats, crafts, and seasonal produce.

Tip: Go before 10am to avoid queues at the cheese stall; sample pòina cheese from local dairy farms.

Friday dinner pick

Taverna La Botte
Saturday — Full Day

The Main Sights

Saturday is your main sightseeing day. Start early to beat the crowds at the top attractions, then take the afternoon at a slower pace.

Church of Sant'Antonio Abate

Free Generally open 9:00–12:00 and

17th-century church with frescoed interior and a wooden altarpiece, located in the historic core of Andalo.

2

Paganella Trail Network

Free Trails open year-round; best f

Extensive network of marked hiking trails starting from the village centre, climbing through alpine meadows and pine forests on the Paganella plateau.

Tip: Pick up a free trail map from the tourist office on Piazza Dolomiti; the loop to Malga Ranzo offers panoramic views without steep gradients.

3

Lago di Lamar

Free Accessible 24 hours; best visi

Small alpine lake at 1,200 m elevation, easily reached by a gravel road or trail from Andalo with views of the Brenta Dolomites.
