【October 21 2016】The Museum in the Clouds is one of the six Messner Mountain Museums in Italy. Built in a renovated World War I-era fort, the collection here focuses on the early history of climbers ascending the peaks of the Dolomites mountain range. Reinhold Messner, the still-active climber for whom these museums are named, favors the alpine style of mountaineering—using as little gear and as little assistance as possible.Explore breathtaking Gallery from the HuluTrip homepage over the past 5 years..
