Our hike this morning leads us across the Pralongia Meadow with spectacular 360-degree views, including the Gardena Pass and the Conturines and Puez-Odle massifs.  Spot the recently visited Marmolada Glacier sparkling in the distance.

Just when you thought the views and food couldn’t get any better, we take one more gondola journey ascending from the village of Corvara to the Piz Boè Alpine Lounge located at 7500 feet.  You will understand how our fine dining destination KELINA received a nod from the Michelin guide, complete with astounding views and perhaps the best bread in the world. 

Enjoy the late afternoon and evening at leisure.  You may find Dana buying Christmas ornaments and drinking beer in the village bar.  Meanwhile, Tim can be found lounging by the pool with views of the mountains, reading a good book.
