Sunday 19 June 2022 from 9.30 to 13.30
Guided naturalistic cultural excursion to the valley of the Mills
DESTINATION: Valley of the Mills of Lusiana - Asiago plateau and the Seven Municipalities (VI)
From the village of Covolo di Lusiana we head towards Valle di Sopra to enter the magical and secluded world of the Chiavone Bianco stream. Over the centuries the force of the water that comes from the southern springs of the Altopiano dei Sette Comuni, was used here through different hydraulic machines. The ancient mills were used to grind the grain, the "pestarini" to shine the barley, the hammers to beat the iron and the sawmill to make boards and beams. Here where time seems to have stopped, the dry stone walls, fountains, capitals and mule tracks tell us about lives spent in close contact with Nature. Thanks to the presence of water, the vegetation of this area is particularly lush and rich in biodiversity: you can admire an explosion of spring blooms and enjoy the shade of centuries-old chestnut trees, hornbeams, downy oaks and ornielli.
Reservations are required.
DIFFICULTY: we assign a difficulty 3 on a scale from 1 (very easy) to 5 (challenging)
The route does not present particular technical difficulties, it is characterized by the presence of mountain paths, mule tracks, wooden bridges and some stretches of asphalt road, rarely busy.
