The Etschtal (Italian: Val d'Adige) is the name given to that part of alpine valley of the Adige in Trentino-South Tyrol, Italy, which stretches from Merano to Bolzano and from Salurn to Rovereto.[citation needed] It is also sometimes used to define the whole river valley, up to its entrance into the Padan Plain.
South of Rovereto, the valley changes its name to Vallagarina.
