We like the mountains because they help us sort out what's important in life. Courage and strength are nought without prudence, and that a momentary negligence may destroy the happiness of a lifetime... Ciao Matterhorn alla prossima

Bad things do happen in the world, like the earthquake that hit Central Italy on 24 August 2016. But out of this situation always arise stories of ordinary people doing extraordinary things.
My heart goes out to victims and survivors of this tragedy and to their families.

The “Aperitif Under the Stars 2016″ turns the lakeside in Bardolino, on the eastern shore of Lake Garda, into a huge lounge bar with live music, performances, gastronomy and of course the spectacle of sky and lake lit up by the fireworks at night.

On my way to Alta Via N°1, I believe Rifugio Lagazuoi has arguably the best location in the Dolomites and from its terrace at 2,752m, you can get a stunning 360-degree panorama over the Dolomites.

EUROPEAN AXIS OF CULTURE : After two thousand years of history, Via Claudia Augusta, the ancient Roman road that led from the Po River lowlands and the Adriatic Sea all the way to Bavaria and the Danube, is enjoying a renaissance. With the end of conflict and a united Europe, the Via Claudia Augusta has become a bridge joining and blending cultures, places and emotions. It is a symbolic route that spans three nations, each with its own diverse landscape and traditions, artistic treasures and culinary specialities, marked by a more approachable, youthful and ecologically sustainable tourism. The itinerary invites us to leave our watches at home to explore places and landscapes from a fresh perspective, attentive to the colours, subtle nuances, fragrances and flavours of the history that permeates everything here.

GIRO D'ITALIA 2016 - A top cast of riders will line up for the first three days on racing in the Netherlands, before traversing the spine of Italy, from the south to the north. It is a very balanced course, and the winner will have to be a complete rider who can deal with the tests against the clock, lots of hard climbing, long stages and backing up and performing every day for three weeks.

The 2016 edition of Vinitaly, the biggest exhibition about wine in Italy and for sure one of the biggest in the world, successfully come to a close.
“Vines are not an essential form of agriculture. We don’t need them to survive… but growing grapes and then making wine gives pleasure. It adds pleasure to our day knowing that the people who drink the finished product will enjoy it.”

Let me tell you what I think of bicycling. I think it has done more to emancipate women than anything else in the world. It gives women a feeling of freedom and self-reliance. I stand and rejoice every time I see a woman ride by on a wheel…the picture of free, untrammeled womanhood.

—Susan B Anthony. (Strickland, 324)

Finally important snowfall has arrived in the Dolomites, which is truly the biggest news in world of skiing. It really has been incredible how little snowfall so many of the Italian mountains have had this winter, and equally incredible how well they have done to offer such decent sport thus far. So in the Dolomites now snow depths are increasing fast, and the seven-day forecast looks good with another 40cm predicted for this area and maximum daytime temperatures remaining close to zero°C at 1000m. a.s.l.

Cause the severe lack of snow in the Dolomites we went scouting the splendid Olympic Region of Seefeld - Austria. With 270 km of prepared trails for all abilities, Seefeld is considered to be a Mecca of cross-country skiing in Europe. We also went ski touring around its surroundings from a totally different perspective ... Bretzel and beer are always welcome !!!
