Optional Activities/Events

Tuesday, January 3, 2006
Afternoon tour to the Ritten (includes transportation and dinner). The southward-sloping plateau of the Ritten (Renon in Italian), which lies between the deep valleys of the Eisack and Talfer rivers, rises steeply above the provincial capital of Bozen\Bolzano and furnishes breath-taking views of the Dolomites to the east. The difference in elevation between the lowest point on the Eisack river and the 7,086 feet Sattelberg is nearly two kilometres or 6100 feet. The Dolomites, from Schlern to Rosengarten and Latemar, form a dramatic backdrop to the east, with the higher, but more distant peaks of Geisler, Langkofel, and Marmolada behind them. The panorama from the Rittnerhorn also includes the Brenta group and the Ortler glacier to the west and the Ötztaler, Zillertaler, and High Tauern Alps to the north. Departure from the Hotel at 14.00, return by 20.00.

Thursday, January 5, 2006
All day tour to Verona (includes transportation and guided walk).
Verona, the city of the most famous lovers in history, Romeo and Juliet, stands on the banks of the Adige river against a hilly backdrop. It is the second most important art centre in the Veneto region after Venice. The fashionable Piazza Bra is linked by Via Mazzini to the heart of the old town. The amphitheater (Arena), the largest in the Roman world, could accommodate 25,000 spectators with its 44 tiers of seats. It is built of blocks of pink marble, flint and brick; this indicates that it probably dates from the late 1C. In summer it is the venue for a prestigious opera season. From the topmost row there is a good panorama of the town in its hilly setting, which on a clear day reaches as far as the Alps. The Roman Theater (Teatro Romano) dates from the time of Augustus. Theatrical performances are still given there.
This Roman colony under the Empire was coveted by the Ostrogoths, Lombards and Franks. The town reached the peak of its glory under the Scaligers who governed for the Roman Emperor from 1260-1387.
Romeo and Juliet, the setting for the drama was Verona in 1302 when political conflict raged. The tragic young couple, immortalized by Shakespeare, belonged to rival families: Romeo to the Montecchi (Montaguesi), who supported the Pope, and Juliet to the Capuleti (Capulets), who supported the Emperor. (Excerpts from The Green Guide: Michelin).
