Zero chemical farm. We grow vegetables, small fruits and raise animals in freedom. The restaurant is open on weekends and offers our products. We have 5 independent apartments in historic buildings and 2 rooms in B&B mode
Ortoalpino is an eco-sustainable farm and agritourism in Borgo Valbelluna (Belluno) that produces its own organic home-made products at zero km, enhances the beauty of the surrounding nature thanks to its vegetable garden, farmyard animals, medicinal plants and wild fruit and hosts customers in two different typical mountain houses (independent cottages with kitchenette), three mini apartments and in three rooms in B&B mode.
The farm and agritourism has two separate properties one kilometer away from each other. The land on which this building stands is partly cultivated with vegetables, partly with meadows and partly with woodland. The historic headquarters, on the other hand, which can also be reached on foot via an inter-farm road, in addition to the land, manages animal breeding (poultry, goats, rabbits and dwarf pigs) and hosts the mother house with an adjoining restaurant open on weekends.
Check in with the delivery of the keys and registration takes place at the historic headquarters of the farmhouse where we will meet and you will receive all the information to optimize your stay. The restaurant room is at your disposal for breakfast and/or lunch and dinner.
Breakfast is self-managed, thanks to the kitchenette in the cottage. We will be happy, if you wish, to provide you with organic vegetables and fruit from our gardens. You can come with us to pick them yourself. Alternatively, on request, the breakfast service is available upon reservation, from 7 to 9, at the price of 10 euros per person, in the breakfast room of the main building. Breakfast, in the Alpine tradition, consists of sweet and savory dishes, homemade jams, fresh bread, milk and many other things including eggs from the farm.
Outside there are tables and chairs in the sun or under the trees that are available to guests for lunch, reading or working with the PC.
Ortoalpino provides 2 mountain bikes for guests who want to use them to visit the surroundings. We offer them for free.
Behind the two cottages there is a small area with a fireplace to be able to, in complete safety, make a fire and cook meat and vegetables. This service is also free, just go to the nearby woods to collect wood.
Breakfast is based on local and organic products: Dolomite barley coffee and/or traditional coffee; Herbal and berry teas; Apple juice, raspberry, elderberry syrup; Orange juice; Homemade cake; Bread, butter and jam (homemade bread, alpine butter and homemade jam); Corn flakes or muesli and yogurt.
During the weekends the farm also opens to catering, both for guests and for the public. The cuisine is typically traditional Alpine based on self-production and the use of chemically untreated products.
We have a conference room that can be booked not only for corporate groups, but also for other activities. We use solar-powered photovoltaic panels, we recover rainwater and we heat the rooms with local wood. We would like to give you the opportunity to live a unique experience through our philosophy of recycling and saving.
You can also find:
- fresh fruit and vegetables (in season)
- fresh eggs
- preserves, jams, juices produced on the farm
We really care that our guests, if they wish, feel part of the farm. We welcome them specifically at the main office where they will refer to for any need, requirement or curiosity. The night service is always present either at the main office or, especially in the summer, also at one of the new accommodations intended for guesthouses.
The company staff is also available to show you the company and the animals obviously according to availability and with favorable weather conditions.
Hospitality is part of a larger project in which the house is often frequented by guests, groups who use the spaces to meet, gather, work together. If you want, you can learn more, talk to them, participate, where and when possible, in their activities.
Michele and his collaborators will welcome you, will accompany you in the knowledge of the spaces and are happy to satisfy every desire and curiosity you have to make your stay more pleasant.
The first experience concerns the possibility of collaborating on the project "the shared garden"
We have identified an area in a flat and sunny place and we make it available to our guests to experiment with their practical skills to enjoy the air and sun of the mountains, to participate in a project in which it is possible
- Plant or sow flowers or vegetables
- Take care of their growth, weed and fertilize
- Harvest the product and consume it during the stay
We are in a context of short stays in which guests stay with us for a few days or at most a few weeks and therefore they will hardly be able to participate in the complete life cycle of a vegetable. In addition to the values already expressed, the beauty of the initiative consists in the participation in a natural process in which the one who reaps is not the one who sows, that is, the guests will consume what they have not produced and will sow what someone else will then consume.
If you think about it, this is a wonderful principle that manifests itself, in other forms also in the intergenerational passage for which those who have taken a path have a moral duty to transfer its essence to the younger ones with the implicit condition that they in turn reciprocate the benefit to the subsequent generations. This is also the role of culture.
From a practical point of view, if you want, you will have gloves and agricultural tools placed in a small box inside the garden to use for agricultural work. Based on the season and the vocation of the land, we will provide you with seeds or transplanted seedlings that you can plant following the principles of natural and consociative agriculture. We do not allow herbicides, pesticides and anything that derives from synthetic chemistry.
You will work in the garden, according to the weather conditions, for as long as you think you can spend during your holiday. No timetable and no obligation. From the garden you will therefore take all those vegetables, flowers, essences that you will feel like using for your lunches, to flavor a salad or simply to remember your experience
Another example is the "Dinner on the Farm". If you want, you can try the experience of dining on the farm with home-made products and typical menus of the Alpine region. Be careful though, because the experience, to be true and sincere, does not reproduce the menu of a restaurant but of an old post station or inn: 1 or 2 appetizers, 1 first course, a second course and dessert. The menu will be the same for all guests, it will be offered only in the evening and will change from day to day. As if it were a family dinner and like family dinners there are no variations but at most, for vegetarians, the meat will be replaced by a slice of cheese or eggs. These restrictions are due both because everything is made fresh and therefore you can't prepare 10 things but also for a re-education to sincerity that is to share what the canteen offers, without pretensions.
Dinner will be served in the breakfast room around 8 pm. It is possible that other guests will also participate in the same dinner.

Agriturismo di montagna in pietra, interamente ristrutturato. Molto bello, in pietra con interni in legno, è davvero accogliente.
Ottima pulizia, ottima cucina bio e fatta con prodotti locali, con il proprietario Michele molto gentile e sempre attento.
Mia figlia di tre anni è rimasta felicissima del contatto con gli animali della fattoria.
Una bella esperienza, torneremo di sicuro.

Il soggiorno è stato splendido sotto ogni punto di vista, l'accoglienza molto calorosa e la posizione perfetta per andare a fare splendide passeggiate. Abbiamo mangiato solo prelibatezze e la casetta è accogliente, pratica e fornita di tutto. Siamo stati magnificamente!

Esperienza da rifare! Il signor Michele è stato gentilissimo e molto disponibile. La casetta dove eravamo ospitati era un gioiellino, la mia bambina di 2 anni e mezzo è rimasta affascinata da questa dimora piccola e accogliente che tanto le ha ricordato le casette delle sue favole preferite. Purtroppo il week end che abbiamo scelto metereologicamente non è stato bellissimo ma ci è servito per scoprire questo splendido B&B al quale sicuramente torneremo con la bella stagione.
