The Earth that hosts us, in our opinion, should be celebrated at all times, but in reality it does not receive much recognition and especially attention, certainly not as much as it deserves.

This is why we want to support those who work every day to raise awareness and educate on the issue of climate change on our planet. From Friday, November 24 to Monday, November 27, the 20% of our revenue will be donated to the organisations: POW Italia, Trentino for Tibet, La Cordillera.

In the days between Black Friday and Cyber Monday come and shop in the Montura Stores and online at montura.com, the future of our mountains cannot be taken for granted.

SEARCHING FOR A NEW WAY... TOGETHER

“Walking along the Sentiero della Pace is much more than a trekking experience”, tells us Yuri Basilicò, founder .

Along the stages, mountains of great beauty parade before us. Adamello, Zugna, Carega, Pasubio, Lagorai... We cross them carrying in our backpacks the pages of Emilio Lussu's Un anno sull'altopiano. In these places, the contrast between the beauty of the scenery and the thought of the violence that took place here is very strong; between the simplicity of the landscapes, the cleanliness of their lines, and the redundant rhetoric of the plaques scattered among the battle sites, often signed by the same generals who sent the 'heroes of the fatherland' to slaughter.

From 22 to 24 September 2023, the Sculptors' Symposium returns to La Collina di Lorenzo, in Castiglione delle Stiviere, in the province of Mantua, where the magic happens.

Some of the most important wood sculptors will enrich this place with original artworks that will remain to delight young and old visitors. Our friend and ambassador Fausto De Stefani will welcome all visitors during the symposium.

Everything will be accompanied by music - including that of the chainsaws and chisels - and the friendliness of the sculptors. Besides celebrating a convivial moment, it will also be an opportunity to raise funds for the Rarahil Memorial School in Kirtipur, Nepal.

Entrance is free of charge.

Durch das Anziehen und Tragen von „Montura“-Produkten wird man Teil eines „Geistes“, einer Gemeinschaft, in der Werte wie Respekt vor anderen und der Umwelt geteilt werden. Menschen, die ständig auf der Suche nach einem Sinn, nach neuen Wegen des Reisens und nach neuen Emotionen sind, die es zu erleben gilt.        
  
Mit der Webserie #UnoMontura möchten wir durch die Worte unserer Botschafter über einen Teil unseres Universums berichten, es mit Ihnen teilen. Dies ist und bleibt jedoch nicht die einzige Möglichkeit. Wer uns bereits kennt, findet unsere konstante und leidenschaftliche Arbeitsweise immer wieder bestätigt; wir heißen alle, die uns durch diese Serie zum ersten Mal entdecken, herzlich willkommen und laden sie ein, bei uns zu verweilen. 

As in the previous editions, Montura, as sponsor of the Festivaletteratura of Mantua (6-10 September 2023), will enrich the programme with an unprecedented exhibition. In the magnificent Atrio degli Arcieri, one of the Palazzo Ducale’s hall, from 10.00 a.m. to 6.00 p.m., will be open free of charge the exhibition dedicated to the third edition of the international contest War and Revolutionary Stories - WARS, which supports the projects of war photojournalists.         

On 10 September, at 12.30 p.m., the prize-giving ceremony will also be held in the presence of the promoters of the initiative, the Atlas of Wars and Conflicts of the World, represented by the President Raffaele Crocco, and the Artistic Director of the award and well-known photojournalist Fabio Bucciarelli. The exhibition is also made possible thanks to the support of the humanitarian organisation Intersos and Unimondo.

"Anima Liquida" (Liquid Soul), a unique work of art by artist Roberto Conte, tell us the fragility of nature and human beings through an uprooted lime tree trunk and a very unique way of communicating this delicate message. Well, the trunk stripped of branches and bark, lying among the linden trees in Piazza Lega Lombarda, will be covered with the emotions that visitors to Mantua's Festivaletteratura will want to communicate. With a new skin made of engraved words, this fallen tree will be able to say new things and give voice to many people. From 6 to 10 September 2023, anyone will be able to suggest their thoughts by writing them on a postcard that can be requested from the staff present.

The work will then become collective and will represent the "liquid soul" of each of us, as well as that of the tree, in an intimate relationship between man and nature. An initiative realised by Montura, a leading Italian company in outdoor clothing and footwear, and Arte Sella, an open-air museum of excellence in Trentino, which presents over 60 installations by internationally renowned artists. It will also be possible to meet the artist Roberto Conte from Friday 8 to Sunday 10, two times a day, at 10 a.m. and 3 p.m.

The Festivaletteratura in Mantua is for the third year a fixed stop for fans of the Montura brand, which in addition to producing clothing and footwear for outdoor use, also produces excellent cultural containers and content, such as books, exhibitions and films. All this in line with its mission to promote mountain culture and make it accessible to as many people as possible. Given these prerequisites, it could not fail to be present at Festivaletteratura, one of the most important national events in the sector.

23 August marks the start of the 2023 edition of the festival Sounds of the Dolomites, which this year will run until 1 October with 18 concerts in Trentino's most beautiful mountains.

Montura is the main sponsor of this important initiative, in line with our commitment to promoting mountain culture and slow tourism and respect for the environment. We also wanted to give special attention to another theme very dear to us, that of inclusiveness.

Four concerts, in fact, give audiences with hearing disabilities the opportunity to enjoy a unique sensory experience, surrounded by the beauty of the Dolomites. All this thanks to technological backpacks that transfer the low frequency response directly to the listener's body.

The four concerts, which can be enjoyed by audiences with motor disabilities as well as those with hearing impairments, are those of 30 August with Frida Bollani Magoni at Malga Brenta Bassa, 8 September with La Petite Écurie at Sagron Mis, 17 September with Iva Bittova at Passo di Lavazè, and 19 September with Fabrizio Bosso and Julian Oliver Mazzarielo at Villa Welsperg.

Climbers are nearly always monomaniacs with unbridled ambitions.
And we’re no exception.
In 2012, having climbed Colonne d’Ercole on the north-west side of Mount Civetta, we blew on the still-hot embers and decided to attempt a new route on Torre Trieste.

Easy to say, wonderful to dream of, but rather complicated to execute.

We started thinking about it, digesting the idea, studying the wall and the existing routes to work out whether it might be feasible… which was absolutely not a given.

In fact, we have an unhealthy tendency to self-impose limits that complicate things somewhat: not only did we want to open a route on the most stunning and famous tower in the Dolomites; we wanted it to be a route with its own logic, a route that doesn’t interfere with the classics and that respects the history of the wall; a traditional-style route that doesn’t require artificial means, and so on and so on…

Montura ambassador Alessandro De Bertolini has stacking up kilometres on his bike with the "Bike the History" project, which combines slow and sustainable travel with the discovery of the territory and its history.

A true trademark for the Trentino cycle traveller, who just a few years ago crossed the United States from south to north, always with the same philosophy, in search of new ways of living the outdoors. At the beginning of July, he set off from Ulan Bator, the capital of Mongolia, for a journey that will take him this time to Asia for three months.
