Lara turns 50!!
I'd like to celebrate taking the time to reconnect with nature, and my region of Northern Italy.
I've grown up hiking in the mountains of Northern Italy, and being able to 'just walk' is something that I love. Neil accepted to join me trekking the Alta Via 2, in the Dolomites, over 13 days in June and July 2025. It will be about 160 km of amazing mountain paths and nights in the local rifugios, in one of the most beautiful mountain regions of Europe!!
We're not asking for gifts, but as some have asked what to give, here below are some options that we both will really appreciate and enjoy, as special moments and memories.
Please take a look at the ideas below, then contact Neil who's kindly offered to coordinate, for details on how to send your gift. And THANK YOU so so much!!
