People & Place
After several miles of alpine hiking, you will arrive to a mountain hut to enjoy a delicious warm meal and a tasty beverage…you will also be warmly welcomed by the incredibly friendly, Ladin people. There are about 30,000 Ladins divided into 5 valleys around the Sella Group (Val Badia, Val Gardena, Val di Fassa, Livinallongo, Ampezzo). Each valley has its own idioms. Sometimes words can be completely different from one valley to another. This place is not only rich in natural history and mountain treasures, there is an incredible culture integrated within the region. We look forward to sharing it with you!
