WHAT TO EXPECT / WHAT IT ENTAILS

A walk that explores the ingenuity that man has developed over time to use the raw materials nature offers, exploiting the energy of water: all this inside the cultural and naturalistic heritage that is Val Meledrio.

NOTES AND INTERESTING FACTS

A journey of discovery into the ancient crafts that used to be practised right here in Val Meledrio: the art of extracting turpentine, cutting timer in the old Venetian sawmill, forging metals using a tilt hammer and the production of lime in the “calcara”, the ancient kiln.
