"Wave upon wave of towering,
crennelated Alpine peaks break over narrow throughs of
firlined valleys. Tiny villages, cozily resplendent with
geranium-decked chalets, strudel-scented bakeries and
onion-domed churches, nestle between mountain slopes so
steep that grazing cows and goatslook as if they might
topple off. Slender roads, twisting along rocky torrents,
offer, at every bend, the possibility of a medieval castle
or a delicate carved wooden shrine adorned with fresh
flowers. Restaurants, with their warm wood-lined dining-rooms,
or stube, are more apt to list their meat or vegetable
stuffed dumplings as Knödel than gnocchi, but their
guest will be as likely to speak Italian as German, or
even Ladin, the ancient language of the region's earliest
inhabitants. Hidden away in a maze of valleys, protected
by the rosy fortress of the Dolomites, the South Tyrol,
as it is known by German speakers, or Alto Adige, as the
Italian call it, is Italy's northernmost province, stretching
from the glaciers and edelweiss in its Alpine north to
vineyards and olives at its southern border...
