after spending the most amazing time sailing  in Greece we had to pick up Ziggy from Philip's   mum in South Row in Northern Italy before  getting back to Renovations at the Chateau   we decided to drive to a tiny cabin which  Philip calls his favorite place on Earth   and if you have never seen the Dolomite mountains  I promise you'll be as Enchanted as we are   and also Philip tries to kill me  up there but more about that later here we are this cabin was built by my grandfather in the  late 60s back then grounds in the mountains   were cheap and being at over 2000 meters  it was easy to get planning for a simple   construction nowadays it would be impossible to  build anything here it has become a protected   Nature Reserve overlooking the spectacular  Dolomite mountains a UNESCO world heritage site   I spent the best days of my childhood  here and we haven't been able to come   here for the last six years so it feels  very special to show this place to my girls hello foreign once it's hot they swim the whole  night it's already cozy I love it here I love it the girls and Ziggy  have just found their spot   and they're just hanging out there enjoying the  scenery so what are you doing I made a fire we'll   take a couple of hours before we feel anything  because it needs to heat up all the stones that   are that this oven is made with so this is  big big chunky stones and they will warm up   and it keeps the warm studio for the night also  heating the water as well this is not you know   we have a gas boiler okay okay downstairs  so I'm gonna get some new wood more wood foreign that doesn't look like it's gonna challenges to get out of here without  losing the faculty of procreation this one fantastic I love it so much yeah  yeah I think this is this is my favorite   place in the world even rather than a boat I'd  say same level as a bird and very complimentary   I was happy when I'm here yeah especially when you  two are here I have to say that it is so special   this place I mean it's Priceless you could not put  a price on somewhere like this so we were really   really lucky that it's in Phillips family and we  still get to come up here I don't know if you can   hear that but there's some cows up here and they  have bells on and it's just the sound it's just   beautiful Ziggy are you having  fun six oh you look so happy   lots of space to run plugging his toe it means  that he's happy yeah he's often wagging his tail um this is the only place in this whole  cabin that has a phone signal and we have   absolutely zero internet and yeah I'm  just sending a message to my parents   so they know that we've arrived but  it's quite nice actually it's like uh   completely deconnecting and I also just  want to say have you seen my new style I only have my walking shoes to put on I forgot to  bring a pair of trainers or some slippers say yeah   um it's a good look here we go what are you making us   I'm making a salad with the cabbage with cabbage  yeah and potatoes with eggs that sounds delicious thank you foreign that's because it's a pony that was so cute is she following you are you coming with us thank you this is a Magic Tree girls look at this tree  second doing this yeah exactly yeah wow that tree so we've just come to this amazing hotel for lunch some sort of ravioli with spinach and a beer of course is hey okay this is a traditional game yeah   it's called table bowling or  something like that okay ready wow not bad okay so now you said I  can either leave the dead ones yeah   which I'm gonna try pick them  up I'm gonna try it out okay one more we have one more okay one thing three four five I'm gonna show you how a   local that's it and don't cry  if I win yeah I only got six I think you're an expert wow five oh my goodness say goodbye success news Danger Mouse okay yeah yeah that's  enough I want to be really good okay okay he's a bit drunk but deadly bad not bad yeah um foreign on an adventure today aren't we yeah it's a  walk about 46 hours depending how fast we are 46   hours no four to six 46. well I wouldn't put it  past you and uh I can show you where it's a really   nice hike across the dolomite we're not taking the  kids today are we no not kid friendly from here   all the way here here here here it's a little  bit of climbing involved um didn't tell Anna so   far but it's not that dangerous it's not  that difficult so I think she can manage challenge I mean there's a typical  Philip he'll say yeah let's go do   some mountain biking it's only going to be  like six hours and then 12 hours later we   still haven't arrived hopefully we have  enough food and snacks to keep us going where do we go hello toss now 20 minutes we  go down the hill and then climb up here again apparently this is where we should be starting to  walk there was a moment of Confusion And um let's   just say I don't always 100 trust Philip on his  uh navigational skills I'm I'm absolutely 100 sure   it's worth trying to take this possible stag um it  doesn't give you a time I don't know if that's a   good sign or a bad sign and remember it's a really  beautiful walk through the forest to start with   and it's very long it's several  hours it's like this very steep   but beautiful it's the reason why I'm  carrying the backpack you always do laughs how do you feel good it's already   I was afraid of breath well we are almost on 2000  meters yeah yeah which means the early thinner it's beautiful that's where I  have to go it's Kerry from here   once you're updates much much easier right  up there yeah where the clouds are after you don't want to fall down Hannah better not oh how beautiful look at this oh   this tree wasn't careful and yeah when we  started we looked fresh and good and now we   are sweaty and red face but that's that's how  it is when you go in the mountains you can see   we're getting to around 2000 meters which is  also the Border where there's no more trees   growing so there's the last two is here and then  it's finished for at least uh careful stones are   falling so oh really this is somewhere you  shouldn't you shouldn't have a picnic here done you've avoided falling down here we stand for be careful come on go and  if it's safe you tell me and I come okay I'm quite happy because just  seeing that there's a handrail here   because it starts to get a  little bit sketchy up there you can do this I want to fall  down here definitely not so you told me this was going to be a leisurely  walk well this is not considered climbing in   my region this is this is basically for  elderly people they can hold on okay just watch where you go okay we've done the first steep bit yeah it's  just the first half but look how you are now   at all Pine Meadows beautiful place you say  that the bus driver that bought us here has   sheep up here yes he asked us to say hello to  his sheep let's see if we can spot anything thank you these mountains are called the Geisler so that  I know all the mountains here but I know some   of them I just found a little Crystal and I love  it I think I'm gonna take it back for the girls okay we found the sheep for a bus driver well I'd say they are very lucky sheep if  you look what they have it's a panorama there's some clouds up there but generally  looks nice the weather soon I'm not worried   I'm worried because this brings back  memories of my childhood being made to   walk up mountains in the Lake District  and then when we got to the top it was   just surrounded by cloud and we couldn't  see any View this is the iconic flower of   this area here the edelweiser they're highly  protected so you're not allowed to pick them why are they so protected because they  are are they rare not over there yeah hey there foreign part starts but I haven't told Anna about that yet what are you doing I'm having  my Casper Davis Feel This Moment how do you feel yeah okay it's getting a little  steeper and I think we are exactly two hours in   so by your calculations we're halfway right yeah  exactly yeah and so easy to go somewhere up here foreign there's a little steep part now I have to  hold on yeah but you did so well the first   time I'm sure you can Master this as well  uh yeah you go first I go first are you sure thank you are you right yeah um so that was scary  you're doing fine I'm just trying because   yeah this is not this that doesn't hold that  stone I tried that one as well thank you I'm just not looking down and up what do you make me do you said this is  going to be a really nice romantic date I   can't imagine anything more romantic than this I  think this is the sketchiest thing I've ever done   oh my God I must love you  to do these things with you anyway just having a little sit down well done oh my God  that was like the scariest thing I've ever done   but you mastered it you mastered the mountain  there was one point where there was a massive   Rock and it literally just fell like I don't know  if my foot hit it and it just fell down right like   the sheer drop I was just like holding on for dear  life the whole time there I think there's no more   very scary moments here you sure yeah kind of   okay now we need to make our way down here  and don't fall down here just just be careful look at this oh and another one another one done  how many are there not that many   I thought that was the one the last  one last me too I can't remember   look now there's a video foggy  coming so we'd probably want to go it's not looking down and I'm holding on hey I just demanded that we have a  lunch break let's have a lunch break   we've been walking for almost four hours straight  yes and I'm hungry and I'm just warming up but   it's probably because I'm younger than you  what do we have sandwiches what about the   view here are we happy without you for picnic  spot pretty if he can beat it bon appetit you deserve it and that's a local staple it's  called kamin what's a really good sausage it's cured smoked meat why does everybody else  seem to have climbing equipment like safety gear   harnesses yeah yeah it's different I I'm a local  I I can't do that it's like a plumber reading   instructions wouldn't look at the same here  I can't do that especially if people watch it   it's chilling watching no no no no harnesses you  told me that we were almost done and the worst   day was over yeah we are and now I've just seen  that I have to climb up a ladder you spend half   of your life on another painting a shadow so  that's nothing for you yeah but look at that   roughly the same size as the  leather you use for painting come on that was catchy that was really scary it was  really wobbly as well I didn't notice I just   didn't stop oh you were so fast yeah I didn't  realize how how much it did like this okay you make it look easy you're almost done and I'm so proud  of you really you've done so well   thank you my love it was a  bit a challenge for me yeah thank you
