About Aromi d'Alta Quota
The Aromatic Herbs of the Dolomites
Aromi d'Alta Quota is a themed week organized by Rifugio Averau, at the Cinque Torri in Cortina d'Ampezzo (Belluno province). The initiative celebrates the high-altitude aromatic herbs that grow on the meadows and rocks of the Dolomites, exploring their uses, flavors, and properties.
Botany and Taste Together
The program combines the discovery of alpine flora with mountain cuisine: guided botanical walks to find wild herbs, talks on their traditional and culinary uses, and dishes that enhance their aromas. The highlight is the botanical walk with gourmet lunch, an accompanied excursion culminating in a meal prepared with local flavors.
An Experience at Altitude
Set at over 2,400 meters, against the backdrop of Cinque Torri, the event is part of the rich summer calendar of Rifugio Averau and the Cortina Delicious program. It's an invitation to experience the mountains in a slow and mindful way, amidst nature, knowledge, and good food, in the heart of the Ampezzo Dolomites.
