In the Lower Engadin
Holiday on the farm
On the way home with fresh milk.
You wake up refreshed by the crowing of a rooster. The cows on the alpine pasture are already ringing their bells to herald an auspicious day, while fresh mountain air flows through the room. The breakfast table is set with home-baked bread and fresh milk. Why not learn how to make cheese, make hay or watch the farrier at work?
