Ice cream and canederli for dogs? It happens in South Tyrol!

Pet-friendly curiosities from around the world

In South Tyrol, Pet-Inclusive tourism is taking a concrete step forward.

It’s no longer just about "Pet-friendly" facilities, but about places that truly choose to welcome dogs as guests, with services designed for their well-being.

The news – also reported by Rainews – comes from Gompm Alm, a mountain farmhouse located above Scena, which has introduced a real menu dedicated to dogs.

A paw-friendly menu

At Gompm Alm, pets don’t just receive a complimentary bowl of water.

Here, they can choose (so to speak 😉) between:

• Artisanal dog gelato 🍦

• Specially designed biscuits

• Even dog-friendly "canederli" (dumplings), prepared with safe and suitable ingredients.

A simple yet revolutionary idea that transforms a mountain hut break into a shared experience between humans and pets.

When the dog is a true guest

As Tina Falke, a canine educator who collaborates with the facility, explains: those who travel with a dog aren't just looking for a place "where entry is allowed," but a place where the dog is considered and respected.

The detail that struck us the most?

📌 Every dog receives its own blanket and personal bowl, so they can enjoy the moment of relaxation just like their humans.

One of the first guests shared:

“Our Mali tried the dog gelato right away, and it was wonderful to see him included in our break together.”

A signal for the future of Pet Tourism

This initiative has at least two major merits:

✅ It demonstrates the growing focus on more conscious Pet-travel.

✅ It inspires other facilities to rethink hospitality in a more inclusive, empathetic, and intelligent way.

In other words:

Dog gelato is not just gelato.

It is confirmation that tourism is finally becoming truly paw-friendly.
