L’ultimo alpigiano
Gabriele has been living with his goats for over 50 years in a small pasture in the Val Grande mountains. A simple, spartan and solitary life in contact with nature. With his death, in December 2018 the Val Grande National Park lost the last Mountaineer. His eyes were witnesses of decades of history in the valley. An era seems to close permanently.
