Dedicated primarily to high mountain farming, the alpages are rolling swaths of verdant grazing land carved out of the alpine forests to serve as a summer pasture for sheep, goats or cows. Unique ecosystems unto themselves, each alpage is the result of its own topography, a vast and varied flora and fauna and the cultural particularities and traditions of the family who has farmed the land, sometimes for countless generations.
Crisscrossed and interconnected by an ancient network of trails, hikers and cyclists in our region are never far from a delicious pick-meup featuring local specialties. The Alpage an authentic get-away from the hustle and bustle of, well, anywhere else.
