About Autumn Festival Pusdosso

In Pusdosso, an ancient mountain village in Isola di Fondra in the upper Val Brembana (province of Bergamo), the festival organized by the Amici di Pusdosso association returns every autumn. A village accessible exclusively on foot, in the heart of the Orobie Alps, where you can have lunch with local products and roast chestnuts in the afternoon. Reservation required.

Pusdosso, a village to reach on foot

Nestled in the mountains of the upper Val Brembana, in the Municipality of Isola di Fondra (Province of Bergamo), Pusdosso is an ancient mountain village in the heart of the Orobie Alps, accessible only on foot. It is here that every autumn the Amici di Pusdosso association organizes its festival, an event that is also an act of love for a place that resists abandonment.

A day of mountain flavors

The festival opens in the morning and revolves around a lunch based on local products: stracchino cheese, potatoes, pumpkin with thyme, cotechino sausage, and apple pie, the authentic flavors of Orobic cuisine. In the afternoon, it's time for roasted chestnuts, a symbol of the Alpine autumn, to be enjoyed immersed in the village's landscape.

How to participate

As it is an isolated village reachable only on foot, booking is mandatory (by writing to the association or through its social media channels). To facilitate access, a shuttle service is usually provided for half the journey. It's a different experience from more crowded festivals: a return to the slow and genuine dimension of the Bergamo mountains, made possible by the commitment of those who keep the memory of Pusdosso alive.
