About El bon de l'Ansuda

In Falcade, in the UNESCO Belluno Dolomites, "El bon de l'Ansuda" celebrates the arrival of spring – "ansuda" in the Ladin language. A weekend in June dedicated to nature, wild herbs, typical cuisine, walks, and excursions in the Val del Biois. Among geological trails, workshops, cooking classes with mountain herbs, and activities for children like the 'cutest dog' contest and meeting Merino, the guardian of the forest, it's a festival designed for families and lovers of the alpine nature.

Spring in the Ladin Language

"Ansuda" means spring in the ancient Ladin dialect of the Val del Biois: El bon de l'Ansuda is therefore, literally, "the beauty of spring". In Falcade, at the foot of the UNESCO Belluno Dolomites, this festival celebrates the awakening of mountain nature with a program that combines excursions, gastronomy, and educational experiences.

Wild Herbs and Mountain Cuisine

The absolute stars are the wild herbs that colour the meadows after winter. The editions offer geological trails with experts, educational tours to discover local flora, visits to the Rock Garden Centre, and cooking classes dedicated to mountain herbs, as well as workshops on candles and essential oils. Aperitifs and tastings of typical cuisine complete the sensory experience.

A Festival for Families

Ample space is reserved for the little ones, with donkey rides, creative workshops, the cutest dog contest judged by a jury of children, and meeting Merino, the guardian of the forest. An opportunity to experience the mountains in a slow, authentic, and family-friendly way.

In the Heart of the Val del Biois

Organized by the Val Biois Association, the event takes place in Falcade, in the province of Belluno, and represents one of the first appointments of the Agordina summer season. An invitation to discover a territory where Ladin culture and Dolomite nature blend.
