On the slopes, along the ridgelines, in the high-altitude meadows: the Saint John\u2019s bonfires dot the Alpine darkness like a terrestrial constellation, visible from afar and recognizable to anyone who has spent at least one summer night in this region. It is one of the oldest and most deeply rooted traditions of Aosta Valley culture (and one of the most fascinating in the entire western Alpine arc)."}
