You are in luck if you are looking for a peaceful escape from everyday life in an enchanted valley. Today’s image features Val di Funes in the Dolomites, Italy. Running from the Isarco Valley to the heart of Puez-Odle Natural Park, the valley offers a spectacular view of the surrounding mountains. With a large selection of hiking paths, such as the Adolf Munkel Trail, it is also an ideal destination for hikers. In addition, Val di Funes is rich in cultural heritage. Several historic churches have been built here, including the Santa Maddalena Church, a true treasure from the 14th century. Every year, the municipality organises a peculiar festival known as the "cattle parade." On this occasion, cows are taken through the streets of the village, adorned with flowers and ribbons. So, if you manage to come by during this event, don"t forget to take a picture with the happiest bovines in the country!
