Are you the worst tourist in the world?
Win a holiday that you don’t deserve.
In the Heart of the Dolomites. Outside Your Comfort Zone.
5th to 9th September 2023
Welcome to the breathtaking Heart of the Dolomites
Veneto – Italy.
Its uncontaminated nature has always been one of the main reasons that attract travelers to visit our mountains.
Our home, the place we love and strive to protect and respect.
“Nature is not a place to visit, it’s our home.”
Gary Snyder
As such it deserves our attention, care, respect and love.
Nature is in danger!
However, we witness ever more frequently extraordinary meteorological events and environmental disasters. These do not concern only areas that are far away from us, but they also affect our territories.
We have faced difficult moments that have put our communities and landscape to the test.
Even today, too many visitors are distracted and uninterested, contributing to the destruction of the environment that surrounds and hosts us.
There’s no time to waste: traveling in a sustainable way must become a priority.
Travel to destroy or improve?
960,000,000
The number of people who traveled worldwide in 2022*
Think for a moment about the impact these travelers have on the environment
More often this impact is a negative one!
It’s time to fight back. Recharge Nature.
Nature isn’t always comfortable and there’s a price to pay for the resources we use.
If until now it has been Nature to welcome and recharge you, now is the time to pay back the favor.
“There is no time to waste. Let us rethink and reinvent tourism and together, deliver a more sustainable, prosperous and resilient future for all.”
– Antonio Guterres, UN Secretary-General
Are you ready to live a unique yet also extreme experience, that you probably don’t deserve; one that could change your life and that of other tourists like you?
From the Heart of the Dolomites we have prepared for you an extreme experience far from every kind of comfort, in Bramezza, a remote, uninhabited village located in the province of Belluno, that can be reached only on foot. Your accommodation will be a typical mountain refuge, where you can count only on natural sources of energy, where you will grow your food and you will immerse yourself in the local culture meeting the local community.
We’ll reflect together about the importance of every single gesture and every single resource.
Why ‘the worst in the world’?
For 74% of those interviewed for a recent report by Booking.com*, it is necessary to make more sustainable choices in order to save the planet for future generations.
So there’s still hope!
But how can we save the world without involving those that are destroying it?
Only you are missing in our team!
Sustainability experts, survival experts, disseminators, policy makers, service designers, special guests and the local community – important protagonists in a territory that fights and resists – are ready to welcome you to the wonderful Bellunese Dolomites.
Your worst behavior will be an added value to help us to construct a better way of traveling together, uniting the skills and experience of the team.
You will be the protagonist of a better way of traveling.
You will leave your mark, but this time your mark will be a sustainable one.
Your adventure will contribute to a project that will help other people like you to travel with more awareness and responsibility.

Uphill in the Heart of Bellunese Dolomites
Backpack on and best foot forwards in the heart of the Bellunese Dolomites. Leave behind your fast ways and earn the embrace of Mount Civetta.
You and nature, face to face
Are you used to getting what you want, when you want? It’s time to follow the rhythm of nature. The scents of the woods and the sound of the wind will be your travel companions.
Rock souvenirs
(NO, not Dolomites)
Stop, don’t do it! That piece of rock isn’t a souvenir. It belongs in the Dolomites where during the enrosadira (alpine glow) it will show its real beauty.
The silence of the woods, without noise
Shhhhh. Can you hear the silence? Respect the vegetable and animal life of the area, leaving them in peace, just as you found them.
People and life, more than a holiday
Meet the local people whose respect for the environment and the mountains is a way of life. This is an opportunity to learn to live alongside nature and say that you have really got to know the territory.
Do you think it’s impossible?
We’ll make sustainability easy for you
No excuses. If up until now you haven’t respected the environment, this extreme holiday will be an opportunity for you to reflect on the importance of adopting a more sustainable way of traveling.
Know your environmental impact
Did you know that every action has a cost in terms of risorses and the impact it has? How aware are you of your environmental impact whilst traveling? During this adventure you’ll have the chance to find out.
Learn from your teammates
You won’t be alone in this adventure! A team of experts with various skills will accompany and help you to make your travel habits more sustainable!
Sustainability is real when shared
Are you ready to make the difference? This expedition won’t only change your own way of traveling! What you call a ‘holiday’ is at the center of a project that will influence other people to travel in a more sustainable and responsible way.
