You can’t assume they will be around forever: memories of dragons can fade until they finally disappear. What is needed is the joyfulness of the storytellers! With a repertoire of legends, fairy tales and stories of fantastic dragons, they try to strip away the layers of time. By recalling the rhythm of nature, memories emerge and, together with them, we can discover the traces they have left behind.

Stuck to the wings of a dragon, our Nikolaus Drache flew over Borneo and crossed the Java Sea to Bali. He survived an incredible adventure, planned down to the last detail, all except for the terrible cold that took his breath away. What was the dragon’s tail like? Well, it seems that the dragon was invisible! We’ll ask him what he has seen.

Prof. Drache’s itinerant show is ideal for all the family. It is free and you don’t need to book. Walk along the path of the Dragon Forest, it is an easy walk for children and families, it will be even better with the itinerant show.

Have you ever wondered how to make butter and cheese? You will discover how milk was once obtained and processed, and how cows and goats are brought to pasture. This is the job of the shepherds and herdsmen who watch over the cattle in the mountains. You will see how to use a rake and how to make hay. Haymaking in the Val di Fiemme is an art.

The itinerant show of shepherds stories is ideal for all the family. It is free and you don’t need to book. Walking along the path of the Distracted Shepherd, an easy walk for children and families, will be even better with the itinerant show.

After crossing the bridge we enter the forest on tiptoe, a place where the wind destroyed 200 years of life in just two hours. The forest is silent: roots and uprooted trunks are everywhere. Sergio will be there to tell us about the renewal process: he is a woodsman who has faith in nature’s endless capacity to regenerate itself. With him will be an expert guide who knows the path, and an elegant city lady who is visiting the mountains for the first time.

The itinerant show of how to plant a tree is ideal for all the family. It is free, you don’t need to book. Let Sergio show you around. With him you will find Mrs Matilde and a Cais guide. Walking along the path of the Distracted Shepherd, an easy walk for kids and families, will be even better with the itinerant show.

It lasts 1h30’, it is easy (no push chair)

Wood is alive. It’s porous, scented and resinous. At times it’s dry, hard and seasoned. With Marcello you will learn which tools are used to cut, smooth and assemble it to make works of art and everyday objects.

Normally, chairs, tables, household furniture and roof structures are made from wood. To make large or small objects, a carpenter’s workshop is never without a measuring tape, a pencil, a penknife, inspiration and imagination.

The itinerant show of “There’s life in wood” is ideal for all the family. It is free and you don’t need to book. Walking along the path of the Distracted Shepherd, an easy walk for children and families, will be even better with the itinerant show.

The silence that reigns in the forest suggests that everything has changed. I wonder if the Dahù survived the fury of the wind!? Within a few hours our scientists began their research and received comforting messages from the subtle vibrations recorded in the centre at Grenoble: the Dahù is there and continues to send signals. But experts with an open mind and plenty of imagination are required to recognise the traces and pick up the frequencies.

The itinerant show is ideal for all the family. It is free and there is no need to book. Walking along the path of the Distracted Shepherd, an easy walk for children and families, will be even better with the itinerant show.

The intrepid Gea is back! Trapped between lava and magma, follow the trail of the ancient volcano of Predazzo. Be amazed as you observe and draw on the maps. This is an adventure that winds along the forest paths and leads you to discover the secrets hidden in the rocks that make the Dolomites such a magical, mythical and marvellous place.

The itinerant show is ideal for all the family. It is free and there is no need to book. Walking along the path of the Distracted Shepherd, an easy walk for children and families, will be even better with the itinerant show.
