Breath taking. Stunning. Gorgeous. Charming. Beautiful.

There are so many words I could use to describe the little village of Castelrotto and Alpe di Siusi, the high altitude meadow that sits above the town.

It's one of my absolute favorite places on the planet.

The village of Castelrotto makes the perfect base to explore the Alpe di Siusi and the magnificent Dolomite peaks that surround it.

It has the right amount of amenities yet is small enough to be charming as hell.

And the Alpe di Siusi?

Truly stunning.

And you don't have to be über fit to tackle the trails that criss-cross this meadow.

All you need is a love of nature — and a camera!

Tune in to learn all about this amazing part of northern Italy.

Because I'm betting when you are finished listening, you will be putting Castelrotto and Alpe di Siusi on your list.
