What strikes you first when you reach the Sanctuary of San Romedio is its spectacular position: it stands on, and in part it is one with, a 70-meter-high rocky spur at the bottom of a canyon. Located in Trentino’s Val di Non, it is one of the main attractions of this valley located north-west of the regional capital of Trento, famous for the Melinda apples extensively grown here.
San Romedio is also among Europe’s most important Christian pilgrimage sites, with approximately 200,000 pilgrims visiting every year. But even if you don’t visit for religious purposes, you’ll appreciate the beauty of the natural landscape and the peacefulness (avoid August!) of this historic sanctuary dedicated to Saint Romedius.
