Renon is the denomination for the high sited plateau located between the two Isarco and Talvera Rivers, to the north of the provincial capital of Bolzano in the South of Südtirol. On the altitude between 800 and 1500 meters, there are sited the locations named Collalbo, Longomoso, Soprabolzano, Longostagno and Vanga.
Enjoyment can also be translated as "doing something good for yourself". At the Renon, this is easy to do. Enjoy the soft natural landscape, the never-ending expanse and impressive panoramic views.
Renon is the place where summer holidays were invented. In 1907, Renon opened its doors to tourists with its first rag railway. Despite a long tradition in tourism, Renon has kept its original touch. This is one of the reasons, why families and hikers simply feel at home here.
The culture of the Renon is maintained with many traditional religious processions and other festivals. There are also ancient frescoes in some of the churches, and in Longomoso stands the "Kommende" of the Deutsche Orden where travellers in medieval times were cared for.
