Dawn in alpine farmhouses and dairies (Albe in malga) is an unforgettable experience in the enchanted treasure chest that is Val di Fassa.
Two dates to experience on a journey that will take you through stunning views and an authentic alpine setting. Fall asleep at high altitude, dreaming of the special awakening dawn will bring. Wake up embraced by the warmth of ancient timber walls, step outside to admire the first rays of sunshine embracing the Dolomites and enjoy the richness of a Ladin breakfast.
Discover the richness of a culture that lives in contact with nature.
The life of the herdsman at sunrise
Set the alarm! "Albe in malga" are back
Experience the life of a herdsman at sunrise in wonderful locations such as Val Jumela and Gardeccia. There are two appointments this summer, in two mountain refuges where you can spend the night, and two farmhouses/dairies where you can tend to the cattle at dawn. The reward? The most genuine breakfast of your life.
Nothing will ever be the same after a dawn on an alpine pasture. The sound of a cowbell will be an irresistible call: you'll jump out of bed at 5:30 a.m. in search of a pasture to herd the cattle, longing for a wholesome breakfast, and you'll watcht the first rays of sunlight with adoring eyes. These are some of the "side effects" - the worst being that you'll never want to leave the mountain pasture again - of one of the most authentic adventures you can have in Val di Fassa.
The experience can be booked online or in the tourist offices of the valley by the day before the activity.
