Senales / Schnals Bolzano Map

Explore Senales (Schnals), Bolzano, Italy, with this interactive street and satellite map. You can “grab” the Senales map and move it around to re-centre it, switch between the standard street map and satellite imagery, and use the zoom buttons to go from the whole province down to street-level detail.

This page also offers a second, independent map. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open OpenStreetMap coverage of the whole of Italy, with a labelled UTM grid drawn the way an IGM 1:25 000 sheet draws it, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS reading that reports your position in Gauss-Boaga and UTM as well as latitude and longitude. See How to Use This Map below. Local and world news, and the nearby places worth visiting, are further down the page.

La pagina offre anche una seconda carta indipendente. Il pulsante 🔍 Search Maps apre la copertura OpenStreetMap di tutta l'Italia, con la griglia UTM quotata come su una tavoletta IGM 1:25 000, lo strumento per misurare distanze e azimut, e la lettura GPS della posizione in Gauss-Boaga e UTM oltre che in latitudine e longitudine.

How to Use This Senales, Bolzano Map / Come usare questa carta

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Senales, Bolzano, Italy. Use the Map and Satellite buttons to switch between the street map and aerial photography. Use the + and − buttons to zoom, or hold the Control key while scrolling the mouse wheel. On a touchscreen, pinch with two fingers. Drag the map to pan anywhere in Bolzano or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill the screen. To go back, press Escape, click ✕ Exit Fullscreen above the map, or on a phone tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

SEARCH MAPS. The green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map opens a second, independent map on OpenStreetMap coverage of the whole country. Its search box finds any Italian comune, frazione, mountain or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Senales.

Reading the map like an IGM sheet. Click Grid to lay a labelled UTM grid over the map, quoted along the edges the way a printed IGM 1:25 000 tavoletta quotes it — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so a six-figure reference can be read by eye and distance judged straight off the map. Click Measure and tap two points for the distance between them with the grid, true and magnetic bearings, the last being the one to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position for a single GPS fix. It marks where you are and reports it as Gauss-Boaga (the grid printed on the IGM Carta d'Italia), as ETRS89 / UTM (the grid Italy uses today), and as plain latitude and longitude, with a copy button so it can be pasted into a message. It takes one reading and stops, to save the battery. Map tiles need mobile coverage; a GPS reading does not — so the grid reference stays correct in the Apennines and the Alps, where the map itself often will not load.

Usa i pulsanti Map e Satellite per passare dalla carta stradale alla fotografia aerea, i pulsanti + e − per lo zoom, e trascina la mappa per spostarti. Il pulsante 🔍 Search Maps apre una seconda carta su OpenStreetMap con la ricerca di qualsiasi comune, frazione o cima d'Italia, la griglia UTM quotata come su una tavoletta IGM 1:25 000, la misura di distanze e azimut (di griglia, vero e magnetico) e la lettura GPS della posizione in Gauss-Boaga, in ETRS89/UTM e in coordinate geografiche. Le tessere della mappa richiedono la rete mobile, la lettura GPS no: il riferimento resta valido anche dove la carta non si carica.

About Senales

Senales, known locally as Schnals, occupies a rugged expanse in the autonomous region of Trentino-Alto Adige / Südtirol. The landscape is defined by the sharp presence of the Grava glacier and the flowing waters of the Rio di Senales, which carve through the high mountain terrain. Beneath the looming silhouette of the Costa del Sole, the air holds a persistent, crisp edge, grounding the senses in the stark reality of the Val di Senales. The surroundings are shaped by the Parco Regionale Gruppo di Tessa, a protected area that preserves the silence of these rocky heights.

The comune includes scattered settlements such as Certosa and Vernago, where life follows the slow rhythm of the changing seasons. A short journey leads visitors to the calm surfaces of the Lago di Vernago, a reservoir that mirrors the surrounding peaks. Further exploration reveals the historical weight of Castel Juval, which commands the entrance to the valley, and the contemplative halls of the Prokulus Museum. In the wider countryside, the icy expanses of the Marzellferner glacier remain visible, serving as a reminder of the raw, elemental forces that continue to sculpt this territory.

Informazioni su Senales

Senales, denominato anche Schnals, si estende in un territorio impervio all'interno della regione autonoma Trentino-Alto Adige / Südtirol. Il paesaggio è segnato dalla presenza austera del ghiacciaio Grava e dal corso del Rio di Senales, che scorre tra le rocce di un ambiente d'alta montagna. Sotto il profilo della Costa del Sole, l'aria conserva una nitidezza pungente che rende ogni dettaglio del terreno incredibilmente vivido. L'intera area è protetta dal Parco Regionale Gruppo di Tessa, che custodisce la solitudine di questi versanti montuosi lontano dal caos.

Il comune comprende località come Certosa e Vernago, dove il tempo sembra dettato soltanto dall'alternanza delle luci tra i monti. A breve distanza, il Lago di Vernago offre una distesa d'acqua immobile che riflette il cielo sopra la valle. Gli spostamenti verso valle permettono di ammirare la struttura fortificata di Castel Juval, che domina lo sperone roccioso, e di visitare le collezioni del Prokulus Museum. Poco lontano, i ghiacciai come il Marzellferner testimoniano la persistenza di un mondo primordiale che definisce ogni orizzonte della zona.

About This Senales Map Page / Informazioni su questa pagina

Explore Senales, Bolzano, Italy, with an embedded Google street and satellite map — switch between the two with the buttons on the map. Coordinates: 46.72477, 10.857489. Place names, the comune and provincia hierarchy and the population come from Istat: the administrative boundaries of 1 January 2026 and the 2021 census of inhabited localities. Local and world news feeds keep the page current, and the bilingual description is written from the data this site holds rather than copied from elsewhere. The 32 nearby places listed above are drawn from OpenStreetMap, the IGM toponym database and a curated list checked against Wikipedia. Alternate and historic names for this place are given in the table above.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Italian comune, frazione, mountain or landmark by name; overlays a labelled UTM grid quoted the way a printed IGM 1:25 000 tavoletta quotes it; measures distance with grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a Gauss-Boaga reference, as ETRS89 / UTM, and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles need mobile coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the grid reference stays correct where the map cannot load.

There is no topographic layer on these pages. The Istituto Geografico Militare serves its Carta d'Italia only inside the EU, so an Italian equivalent of the 1:25 000 walking sheet cannot be shown here — the UTM grid over OpenStreetMap is what stands in its place.

Non è presente un livello topografico: l'IGM distribuisce la Carta d'Italia solo all'interno dell'Unione Europea.
