A Day in the Dolomites with Diego – How lucky we are when our quiet Italian driver, Diego sparks-up and suggests we visit the little town of Molveno on the ‘Madonna Lake’ and ride funiculars 1,500 metres up into rarefied air of the mountains to be among the peaks of the ‘Alpi Dolomiti’.
On the way back down, Diego retraces his childhood steps from years of camping up here with school friends, and leads us through hidden pathways of blackberry bushes and undergrowth, to reach an incredible vantage point to view the beautiful lake of the Madonna of Molveno stretching below us.
It’s very personal and special. And then witnessing Diego’s pleasure at our appreciation of his suggestions, is equally as special to each one of us.
