Enjoy Alpine Scenes On The Bernina Express On Vacation In Lombardy

If you were considering booking a vacation rental in Lombardy and were hoping for some spectacular less obvious gems in the region beyond its famous capital, Milan, and beloved Lake District then you are very much in luck. While those two destinations alone are more than enough reason to plan a holiday in Lombardy as soon as possible, there is much more to the region, many surprises and wonderful treats and fantastical beauties. For example, as this northern region of Italy abuts the Alps and Switzerland, it is an ideal place to go if you want to weave some excursions to those famous peaks and stunning landscapes while also enjoying days in the most cosmopolitan part of the already ever-chic Italy, fun by the lakes, the wonders of Italian cuisine and culture, and much more besides. Simply get in the car early some morning and head to the town of Tirano where you will find the most extraordinary adventure awaiting you and then return back to a lovely villa with pool in Lombardy with incredible lake views at the end of the day afterwards...the best of all worlds in one wonderful trip!

Although most of the Swiss Rhaetian Railway exists in Switzerland, one quaint little train station resides in Tirano in the Northern Italian region of Lombardy. The Rhaetian Railway is owned by a massive Swiss transport company, which stops off in beautiful tourist spots and runs through splendid natural landscapes.

Stay in a beautiful vacation rental in Lombardy, where you can easily commute to see the Italian section of the Rhaetian Railway for yourself. There are many superb sights to behold in the Northern region of Lombardy but be sure to bring warm clothing with you to wear in the colder months outside summer!

When one is planning a vacation during the winter months, there are really two ways that you can choose to go: embrace the cold by planning a ski break or try and fight the cold by going to a warm destination or a place where you can get warm readily. In the latter case, the naturally-occurring thermal springs located all around Italy mean that even if temperatures outside are not that high, the soothing, therapeutic, relaxing mineral-rich waters in these hot springs are sure to warm you up, right down to your bones!

So, if you're someone who is always trying to fight the cold and you are looking to enjoy a relaxing spa getaway this winter, we highly recommend heading to one of these destinations. Plus, if you want to combine a bit of both ways of coping with the cold – embracing it and enjoying winter activities and soaking in thermal waters to warm up afterwards – many of the same towns where thermal springs are found also have ski facilities themselves or ski resorts located close by. Here are our picks for the top thermal spa destinations to discover on vacation in Italy this winter...

Come Discover The Impossibly Beautiful Spa Town Of Bormio Terme

Picture this: you've found a vacation rental in Lombardy and you are spending cold winter days with the Italian Alps, a cute Alpine town and a building that bears an uncanny resemblance to the Grand Budapest Hotel unfolding in front of your eyes as you sit in a hot tub in a spa, soaking your stress away. Then you get out of the hot tub and go get a treatment or go skiing or sit in front of a blazing fireplace in your cosiest clothes with a hot drink and a good book on hand...what could be lovelier than that? You've had a tough, long year, why not treat yourself with the ultimate winter spa getaway in Italy? Why not plan a trip to Bormio.

Passo Tonale is a great, budget-(and beginner)-friendly ski resort in Italy located on a high mountain pass that links the regions of Trentino and Lombardy.

Its location means that you can find a vacation rental in Trentino or a vacation rental in Lombardy, giving you more options to choose from and the wiggle room to find the perfect villa from which to base yourself as you enjoy the winter sports that Italy has to offer. It's the best of both worlds!

The village is located at the foot of the slopes with a gondola, that was installed in 2015, and an efficient lift system that makes the glacier more readily accessible. These go from Passo Paradiso to the slopes of Passo Presena, which are mainly suited to beginners and intermediate skiiers, and also link the town to the slopes of Ponte di Legno and Temù, which offer something more interesting for more advanced skiers.

Mottolino Fun Mountain: Year Round Adventure In The Italian Alps!

When it comes to outdoor adventures, there are many that suit only one time of year; beaches are most enjoyable in summer, hiking is most pleasant in spring and autumn. However, some outdoor adventure destinations are set up to suit different purposes and are an excellent idea no matter when you visit. Take, for example, Mottolino Fun Mountain, set high in the Italian Alps above Livigno. This adventure park adapts to the time of year and is a ski area or a bike park, depending on the season. So, if you have found a vacation rental in the Northern Italian Ski Region and want to have a holiday in the Italian Alps, no matter what time of year you are going, you will find that there will be adventures to be had at Mottolino Fun Mountain. Explore the stunning landscape of the Italian Alps while having fun outdoors!

From early June to late September (check the Mottolino website for exact dates on any given year, as they can vary), the park is a bike park that offers fourteen different routes for people at various ability levels, a jump area, a slopestyle area, an air bag to practice jumping and tricks, and a north shore area – where you can test your balance and try your first jumps. Opened during the 2005 MTB World Cup, the bike park has quickly become a meeting point for all downhill and freeride mountain bikers from all over Europe. Inexperienced riders can also come and enjoy the thrills too, however, as you can rent all of the items and safety equipment that you might need and there are trained guides from the Freeride Bike School who can come along with you to discover the Mottolino Bike Park trails. Plus, the range of trails for beginners and pros makes it easy to learn and progress.
