Alt(r)o Festival offers walks, encounters, and artistic itineraries to discover and explore the mountain landscapes. The festival was born from the desire to explore Valmalenco beyond the usual boundaries, to discover hidden corners, forgotten places, and unobtrusive details, to teach people to consciously lose themselves, forgetting the need for a destination. Walks with authors, performances, concerts, workshops, and sports bring visitors into close contact with trees, forests, pastures, and rocks, offering an intuitive and vivid experience of nature.
All festival events are free.
