Who mows that grass, and why?
It's actually a very popular and accessible place which this photography captures really well.
The left side if wild, probably nobody even goes there. Right side is perfectly curated with a convenient path which you can most likely reach with a lift opened from dawn to dusk.
The valley has a great infrastructure. A lot of spots are even wheelchair accessible.
Yet, you can start from such spots and hike until there is literally nobody else around, even during high season.
Warmly recommended.
The peaks you see are called Seceda. The entire area starting from the right side of them in the picture is called Alpe di Siusi (Italian) / Seiser Alm (German), and is the largest high-elevation Alpine meadow in Europe. I've been there recently and can confirm the wheelchair accessibility.
I wish that was my job.
