A whitewashed Epiphany bridge over the Gennargentu, awakened in the last few hours amidst enchanting scenery and hundreds of visitors between the heights of Desulo and Fonni.

The tourist operators who recorded a large number of comings and goings in the accommodation facilities were satisfied.

«It couldn't have gone better – says Bastiano Frongia of the “Is Cubas” restaurant in Tascusì – many chose us satisfied by the uncontaminated landscapes and local food. We are happy to have seen the appreciation for the service and our territory in everyone's eyes."

Thus Delia Cualbu from the Hotel in the center of Fonni: «The snow arrived at the gates of the town in the morning. We have registered several booking requests for the next few days. An immediate response of strong interest for our Gennargentu which can only give us great pleasure as always."

A snowfall with positive aspects, without particular inconvenience for the population and farmers. The snow plows and salt spreaders will be operational from the early hours of the morning and will continue their work into the night.

«We had the first visitors since Friday evening – says the mayor of Desulo, Gian Cristian Melis – and yesterday the attendance increased significantly. Now we will have to study how to provide services to visitors. Anyone who travels over a hundred kilometers to come to our area must be fine."

Daniela Falconi, mayor of Fonni: «The traffic has been visible since the morning. Now let's hope that next weekend it will be sunny. The operators who organize excursions, snowshoeing, snow activities, but also the accommodation and catering facilities will, as always, be ready to welcome everyone in the best possible way."
