The magic of butter
This event already took place.
11 dates from 2/07/2026 to 10/09/2026
A workshop at Ciampac to discover how mountain butter is made and to try making it yourself.
Can you smell the aroma of freshly processed milk? At Ciampac, children can discover how butter is made – just like in the old days. Guided by a local expert in mountain dairy traditions, they will enter the world of the butter churn, learning step-by-step how wholesome, creamy, and fragrant butter is made from alpine milk. And the best part is getting involved: turning the churn with your own hands, watching the milk transform, and tasting the freshly made butter together. This is a simple, engaging activity to introduce children to mountain life through hands-on experience, taste, and tradition.
Meeting point: every Thursday at 10:00 at the top station of the Ciampac cable car in Alba di Canazei. Duration: about 2 hours. Difficulty: easy. Children from 4 years old. Suitable for pushchairs.
Price: free activity organised by the Funivia Ciampac e Contrin company, included in the Panorama Pass, the Dolomiti Supersummer pass, or the lift ticket. Booking is mandatory online or at the valley's Fassa Sport offices by 18:00 on the previous day. Maximum 35 participants.
Suitable clothing and footwear are required. Packed lunch or lunch at a local mountain hut is at the participants' discretion. In case of bad weather, the activity will be cancelled.
