In balance with the environment
The mountains are a living, complex, and remarkably delicate ecosystem. Every element – from the largest animals to the smallest flowers, from forests to rocks – contributes to a natural balance that has developed over time and must now be understood and respected.
Living in the mountains means learning to observe them carefully, recognizing their signals, and adopting mindful and respectful behaviors toward everything that inhabits them. Only in this way can we help preserve this unique natural heritage and ensure that it continues to provide life, beauty, and inspiration for future generations.
