Sentiero degli abeti giganti - short route
The Giant Trees trail is an extraordinary and wild place, full of centenary trees. With their impressive height, it seems that they can reach the sky.
Spruces, silver firs, beech trees and yews have been the silent guardians of Noana Valley for centuries. Recently they have become the leading characters of two suggestive and magical routes that will allow you to explore the core of the woods, discover the atmosphere and enjoy the silence. We want to recommend you the short route that starts by the Valpiana Forestry Farmstead (Cascina Forestale di Valpiana). It is located just 6 km from the village of Mezzano, listed as one of the "Borghi più belli d’Italia" (Most Beautiful Medieval Villages in Italy). Following the ring path that unwinds for 2.7 km, you will experience the magical sensation to be in the heart of a big forest. You will also find plain and panoramic spots, from where you can admire the disarming beauty of the Dolomites.
