IN UN MARE DI VERDE

Diving into a sea of green

di loro, sulla loro vita, sull’ambiente circostante. Il tracciato è arricchito da cartelli didattici, giochi e da una simpatica area attrezzata, un villaggio in miniatura dove c’è anche un punto per fare dei selfie e… chissà mai che uno gnomo non appaia nella foto?! Presso l’InfoPoint di Tarvisio è disponibile un simpatico kit gratuito per i bambini.

Per i più grandicelli c’è lo Skate Park (in via degli Azzurri) e il vicino “Lynx Trail”: si tratta di un percorso naturalistico didattico dedicato alla lince, il più raro dei mammiferi in Italia, a rischio estinzione, che vive nella foresta di Tarvisio. La salita nel bosco, semplice e piacevole, porta a due punti panoramici; lungo il sentiero, le bacheche didattiche danno numerose informazioni su questo felino, difficile da vedere in natura. Si consigliano calzature da trekking.

The forests of Tarvisio are the ideal destination for a full-immersion experience in nature: an unspoilt environment for an outof-town daytrip or a full-fledged holiday of complete relaxation in one of the numerous family-friendly accommodation options in the area. Here you can enjoy the cosy rhythm of slow lifestyle or choose from a wide array of sports and outdoor activities.

Family vacation activities include fully equipped playgrounds; rail coasters; and bike- and mountain-bike trails of various difficulty levels, ranging from flat cycle paths to more challenging itineraries, all easily accessible and outfitted with rest/picnic areas.

Camporosso, near the main church located in Via Duomo (parking area nearby), is the starting point of the «Gnomes’ trail»: an easy walking itinerary following part of the mountain ridge through wooded areas. A funny-looking wooden gnome welcomes visitors and signals the entrance of the trail, where a signpost invites you to proceed and spot other gnomes along the way, to learn about the traits and habits of these peculiar wood dwellers. Those who enter the trail must respect nature! Strollers are not allowed.

Tarvisio gnomes are known as Bergmännchen. Behind Edelhof Hotel, and following Via del Torrente, visitors will find the entrance of the «Weidachweg», a trail running along Bartolo creek: along this itinerary you can find out all about Bergmännchen, their way of life, and the surrounding environment. Weidachweg is complete with detailed educational signage, as well as games, a rest area, a miniature village with a selfie point, and… who knows, maybe even a gnome or two that will pop up in one of your pictures! Free trail kits for children are available at Tarvisio InfoPoint.

Those who have outgrown gnomes and fairy tales will certainly enjoy the Skate Park (located in Via degli Azzurri) and the nearby «Lynx Trail»: an educational nature trail focusing on the lynx, the bobcat dwelling in the forests of Tarvisio, which is Italy’s oldest mammal and currently an endangered species. The gentle climb through the wood leads to two panoramic viewpoints. Informational signage guides visitors throughout the whole itinerary, providing interesting insight into this feline species, so hard to spot in the wild. Hiking shoes recommended.
