Winter Mountains at Sunset

Snow, silence, and starry skies: the mountains between Brescia and Sondrio are even more magical after sunset.

from IN-LOMBARDIA.IT

In winter, Lombardy’s mountains offer fairy-tale views, especially as the sun is setting.  At sunset, the snow-capped peaks are tinged with pink and at night, the towns are all lit, while under the starry skies, the valleys are enveloped in silence.

 

Between the provinces of Brescia and Sondrio, this atmosphere invites you to see the mountains with new eyes: night-time snowshoe tours, skiing by moonlight, and moments of pure magic. Here, the evening does not mean the end of the day, but rather the start of an experience to be enjoyed, with the right dose of care and attention, and in complete safety.
