On September 6 at 4:00 p.m. Malga Campon in Fonzaso hosts the last stage of Dolomiti Arena – Slow Mountain Music Festival with a free concert by FRANCESCA MICHIELIN.
This is the perfect opportunity to discover a surprisingly close, spacious, and welcoming mountain: Monte Avena. Ideal for those looking for a day outdoors without difficulty, but with sudden panoramic views that leave a lasting impression.
It's one of those places that allow you to experience life naturally: it is easily reachable and quickly transforms into a privileged observation point over Valbelluna and the Belluno Dolomites. Just a few steps are needed to find open views, panoramic benches, and perfect corners for a break, perhaps enjoying local products at the huts or establishments in the area.
THE EVENT IS FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. If you can, register: it is not mandatory, but it will help us organize the day better!
