A piece of Brembana Valley





In a little spot in the Brembana Valley exists a place called Pagliari. It’s 1313m up in the sky and what you’ll find there are rustic stone houses, greener than green pastures, an icy cold river and a spectacular cascading waterfall.


I was there last weekend with a load of friends and Alpini for their yearly BBQ party – fresh polenta, meat on skewers, sausages, more sausages, all  glugged down with lots of red wine. 

The breeze and fresh air made us forget that in down town Bergamo, the heat was suffocating the life out of some people, and natures calling covered us with insects like biting ants and huge creepy crawly spiders.
