Fighting on the front of the Great War at over three thousand meters means fighting a White War. This is how the First World War is called in Alta Valtellina, which wore out the armies for over three years during which the soldiers of both sides had to survive in extreme conditions.
This conflict demanded those young men not only to survive the weapons but to do so facing snow, ice, and cold. History and nature enthusiasts can undertake various excursions, such as the Path of Memory and the Path of Flowers. Among marvellous panoramas and war testimonies, the remains of military villages, trenches and defensive works built over a hundred years ago are visible.
To live a naturalistic experience, but also retrace history, try to imagine the life of struggle and sacrifice of trench soldiers. Who knows the cold, the hunger, the fear.
And how deafening the roar of the weapons and cannons must have been. Imagine that now the wind returns to you the song of the Alpine soldiers, used to seek together the strength and courage to resist and survive.
