This summer season, Val Gardena will introduce “mountain rangers” to the valley.
Four Dolomites Rangers, who are tasked with protecting Val Gardena’s unique nature, will take turns to work across the valley’s locations to raise awareness on how to behave, give safety tips to hikers and cyclists, provide information about the paths, weather, and other relevant topics as well as monitoring illegal camping practices. Rangers can also perform first aid in the case of an emergency.
