A day among the snow in Asiago, Alps, Italy
A few weeks ago, we decided to go to the mountains after many years to see the snow, since it doesn't snow here anymore... So, shortly after Christmas, we took advantage of the first snowfall at high altitudes and a nice day to improvise a trip. The idea was to show our son the snow, as he had never seen it before, and to let him use a sled, something I used to do often as a child and really enjoyed. We headed towards Asiago, in the Veneto Alps.
It took an hour to get there, but as soon as we drove up, we started seeing snow on the road, fresh from the night before. Fortunately, we didn't have to go too far up. Very beautiful and evocative images.
Soon after, we arrived at a place with a restaurant and a kiosk where we could rent sleds, and there were many slopes. The price was very good—5€ for one hour of sledding, which you could use wherever you wanted, and even an adult could fit comfortably, not just a child. Needless to say, my son had a great time. It was a struggle to climb back up every time, but it was worth it.
After a couple of hours of sledding up and down, we ventured a bit into the snow-covered forest to take some nice photos. We didn’t go all the way in, but we wanted to see what it was like.
In the end, towards the evening, we returned home satisfied and happy!

@galenkp here is the snow trip post, as promised, a little late
Great photos mate, a stark contrast to the hot weather I'm having. Snow always intrigues me, probably because I don't see it much. Snow and forests seem to go together right?
Thank you... I don't see it much either nowadays, weather changed a lot in the last 20 years
Indeed, expecially pine forests!
Something really cool to see is snow in the Australian scrub. It's such a juxtaposition for the mind because scrubland trees are not usually associated with snow. It's pretty cool to see.
Sort of how would be palm trees under the snow, sounds cool the mental image
Woahh!! Great pictures po. I want to experience this kind of weather, I want to feel or touch the snow too. Haha hayyy! 😍😍 I really love your photographs. 🥰
Thank you! You need to find some high mountain and check it out during winter 😄
Haha hoping soon I can do that.
