Almenadvent at Fane Alm (Alpine Advent at Fane Alm)

The 2025 edition marked the debut of the Alpine Advent at Fane Alm, above Valles, in the municipality of Rio di Pusteria (BZ). The event took place on the four Advent Sundays — November 30, December 7, 14, and 21 — from 11:00 AM to 3:30 PM.

The musical program alternated between local choirs and bands: on the first Sunday, the blessing at the mountain pasture was accompanied by the Valles choir and band; on the second, the arrival of Saint Nicholas with the men's choir from Terento; on the following Sundays, wind ensembles and local musical duos performed. For children, there were animated readings, creative workshops, and the mailbox for letters to the Christkind.

Among the snowy huts, visitors found mulled wine, artisanal products, and South Tyrolean gastronomic specialties, in an intimate and authentic atmosphere reached on foot along the Milk Trail.
