Museo delle Guide e della Grande Guerra (Museum of Guides and the Great War)

This small but poignant museum, located near the Passo del Tonale (a short drive from Campiglio), offers insights into the history of mountain guiding and the dramatic events of World War I in the high mountains. It features exhibits on early mountaineering, the lives of alpine guides, and artifacts, photographs, and personal stories from the 'White War' fought in the glaciers and peaks. It provides a deeper cultural and historical context to the surrounding landscape, highlighting the challenges and heroism associated with the alpine environment. Entry fees are typically €5-€8. It's generally open from June to September and during specific winter periods, offering an engaging educational experience away from the slopes.
