Important trading routes have been crossing over the Brenner Pass for a long, long time. Numerous cavaliers, who wanted to grab a piece of the wellbeing the country had to offer, built castles on the round mountain tops in order to prevent traders from using their path without paying fees.
400 magnificent castles and numerous churches pay witness to this past, and natural monuments like the up to 15 m high pyramids in Renon or the primeval larches in Ultimo with a perimeter of 8.20 m will fill you with astonishment.
