The Oberhof is one of the last mountain cabins found deep in the Val d'Ultimo. For centuries, the Schwienbacher lived here, calling these huts "Oberhofer". Luis and Wascht, brothers who live with their elderly mother Zilla, set off at the end of June with scythe and rake, moving to the Tufer refuge at 2000 meters. In August, they cut the fields, taking care not to miss a single blade of hay. In winter, the hay is loaded onto sleds and tied with cords made by the brothers (under the watchful eye of their mother) from cowhide. The descent into the valley is cause for celebration. Once, young girls would choose the boy with the most attractive sled to dance with; no one dances any more, because there are no longer any girls.
