On July 18 at 5:00 p.m. Malga Campon in Fonzaso welcomes the first stop of Dolomiti Arena – Slow Mountain Music Festival with a free concert by FRANCESCA MICHIELIN.

This is the perfect opportunity to discover a surprisingly nearby, vast, and welcoming mountain: Monte Avena. Ideal for those seeking a day outdoors without difficulty, yet with sudden stunning views that leave a lasting impression. 

It is one of those places that can be experienced naturally: easily accessible and quickly becoming a privileged observation point over Valbelluna and the Belluno Dolomites. Just a few steps lead to open views, scenic benches, and perfect spots to take a break, perhaps enjoying local products in the nearby lodges or establishments.

THE EVENT IS FREE AND OPEN TO ALL. If you can, register: it’s not mandatory, but it will help us organize the day better!
