Flower Hikes
Already in March, the first signs of spring come into view on the partly still snow-covered ground. From week to week there are more, until in midsummer the plant life extends to the barren ridges of the Dolomites. There, you may discover the true survivors, even endemics (Moretti‘s Bellflower or the Devil’s Claw) can be found in the Nature Park Alpe di Siusi – Catinaccio.
Many of the small flower heads are real eye-catchers, not only aesthetically – some of them can be transformed into syrups, salads, soups and other culinary delights. They truly are “a feast (not only) for the eyes”.
