The didactical trail, which passes through the naturalistic and archaeological site of Gandria offers you the possibility of really getting a better idea of the natural world and history of this very special and easily accessed pre-alpine region.

Along the way, there are 15 numbered stations for the guided observation of special characteristics of the environment. In this natural scenario, there are several vantage points from which outstanding views can be admired. These landscapes are listed in the Federal registry of landscapes and villages of national importance that are to be protected.
