New Year’s Eve Torchlight parade in Colere

The night of New Year’s Eve comes alight with atmosphere and tradition in Colere. The village, located on the slopes of Presolana and Mount Ferrante, celebrates the arrival of the new year with a beautiful torchlight parade, with its stunning procession of lights at the foot of the mountains.

On 31 December, as well as the torchlight parade, the nearby Schilpario, comes to life in the late afternoon, with snacks, distribution of torches, and a walk up to Paradiso, followed by the torchlight parade on skis, then a firework display. Colere still has an atmosphere all its own: although it has experienced a recent boom in tourism, it still preserves all the authentic heart of a mountain village, with its meadows, traditions, and panoramic views, all waiting to be discovered. 

Its mountains are a point of reference for winter sports: the great exposure and snow covering make it a great place for alpine skiing, cross-country skiing and snow activities for a large part of the season. The atmosphere of the village creates the perfect setting for end of year activities and winter thrills at altitude.
