A day of engines, rural tradition, and alpine spirit on the Fiavè plateau
The Fiavè Tractor Rally is an event dedicated to the world of agricultural machinery and rural tradition, held in the municipality of Fiavè, in the heart of the Giudicarie Esteriori, in Trentino-Alto Adige. Established in 2024 by the ANA Gruppo Alpini Fiavè, the event has grown year by year to become a staple of the spring season on the plateau, attracting enthusiasts, farmers, and families from all over the Province of Trento.
The rally is set in the Fiavè Peat Bog (Loc. Rudel Torbiera), a natural environment of extraordinary value. This wetland, the ancient bed of Lake Carera formed about 14,000 years ago, houses the famous Fiavè pile-dwelling site, included since 2011 in the UNESCO World Heritage list along with the prehistoric pile dwellings of the Alpine arc. Hearing the engines roar in a place so rich in history and nature gives the event a unique charm.
The event spans an entire day, from the early morning until late afternoon. The typical program includes:
At the heart of the event is the community spirit typical of the Alpine groups: volunteers, farmers, and enthusiasts come together to share their passion for engines and the rural roots of the territory. The alpine lunch, prepared by the ANA volunteers, is one of the most anticipated moments, while the parade along the streets of Fiavè involves the entire village. The timed skill trial adds a touch of healthy competition, testing the drivers' dexterity through precision maneuvers and obstacle courses.
The Fiavè Tractor Rally is an opportunity to discover an authentic corner of Trentino, where agricultural tradition intertwines with the protected nature of the peat bog and the millenary history of the pile dwellings. It is a free event suitable for all ages, ideal for a day trip dedicated to folk traditions and mountain conviviality.
The 3rd Fiavè Tractor Rally was held on April 12, 2026, from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, in the setting of the Peat Bog. The day followed the well-established program of the ANA Gruppo Alpini Fiavè, with the gathering of tractors in the morning, the alpine lunch at noon, the timed skill trial in the afternoon, and the highly popular parade of vehicles along the streets of the municipality, concluded by the awards ceremony.
Fiavè is located on the Lomaso plateau, in the Giudicarie Esteriori, at an altitude of about 660 meters. By car from the Sarca Valley, head up towards Lomaso; the Rudel Torbiera location is well signposted within the municipality. The nearest train station is Trento, from which you can continue by Trentino Trasporti bus lines.
Access to the rally is free. An alpine-style lunch is provided by the volunteers (limited seating, booking recommended). Ample parking is available near the Peat Bog.
