Our holiday homes are located in the shepherd’s village of Vale right at the foot of the Transalpina. Within a day-trip you can experience it.
A view from a distance ...
... and off we go.
The Transalpina passes through some villages.
Formerly ...
... this mountain village was hard to reach ...
... which is why some traditions have survived to this day.
Sheep brought prosperity, while sometimes hindering progress.
The highway leaves human settlements behind ...
... runs through the woods ...
... and winds through untouched nature.
You climb colourful hights ...
... up to the mountain peaks ...
... and back into other infinite spaces
Once upon a time, a family lived here with their animals.
Here, two guys in a hurry ...
... while others can’t be rushed.
A fellow long-extinct elsewhere ...
... and another one usually found in the zoo.
Lunar landscapes appear ...
... and sometimes hide behind clouds.
Soon the grass cover re-appears ...
... and the Transalpina descends ...
to the woods.
Whoever feels like taking a dip, setting up the tent and lighting a fire ...
can go right ahead!
