Val Lomasona
Directions

The path flanks the Torbiera Lomasona, a veritable “lake of grass” created from an ancientpond of free water and interrupted by small canals and wells. Torbiera is a provincial natural reserve, a particular protected habitat where various types of amphibians and reedand marsh birds live. Above the first part of the path there are rocks with numerous cavesand which maybe gave rise to the local legends that talk of witches. The path enters the wood, where there are black hornbeams, flowering ash, spruce and beech trees, somereally monumental, and then continues beyond the narrow Dal stream until the final part ofthe wood before returning along the gravel path.

public transportation
