3# After the hike
4
5## Back home
6
7*August 28, 2025*
8
9My dad's cousin came to pick us up. As we got into the car, the
10storm started. From there, it kept raining the whole afternoon. Not
11coninuously, it came and went, but when it was there it was
12very strong. The bad weather continued for a couple of days.
13
14We made a good call ending our trip early.

16## Celebration
17
18*August 29, 2025*
19
20Some of the people we met along the way arrived in Feltre on the next
21day. Like use, they could not properly finish the Alta Via, as the bad
22weather caught them when they arrived at Passo Cereda.
23
24We decided to meet for a dinner all together at [Birreria
25Pedavena](https://www.labirreriapedavena.it/), the largest brewery in
26Italy, which is conveniently located between Croce d'Aune and Feltre. In
27fact, if you walk Alta Via 2 all the way to Feltre, you pass right in
28front of the Birreria.

32## Award
33
34*September 2, 2025*
35
36Upon completing Alta Via 2, hikers can receive an official pin. It is
37awarded by the tourist office in Feltre, where they can also
38add their name to the book of "finishers".
39
40As you know, we did not complete the full Alta Via. But since Feltre is
41just around the corner, we thought why not go there and ask? In the end,
42the exact route of Alta Via 2 is not set in stone.
43
44It turns out that, according to the guidelines laid out by the Italian
45Alpine Club, reaching Rifugio Boz is enough to officially complete Alta
46Via 2 and be called a finisher!

50Indeed, they know that the last leg of the hike is often skipped due to
51bad weather. Ending the journey at Passo Cereda, however, is not enough.
52
53So now we also have some official recognition for our effort. Cool!

55## Farewell to the mountains
56
57*September 3, 2025*
58
59After the hike I spent a few days at home with my family. But now it is
60time to go back to the flat lands, where I have been living for the past
61few years.
62
63My flight back to Amsterdam, as it sometimes does, flew right over the
64Dolomites. I was able to recognize not only my home town, but also many of
65the mountains and valleys my dad and I walked through just a week earlier.
