Also this year the Municipality of Roana celebrates the wonders of autumn with "Vèrben- A Train of Colors", which reaches its 5 ^ edition!

The event will take place over two weekends: Saturday 7 and Sunday 8 October 2023 in Roana and Mezzaselva and the following one on Saturday 14 and Sunday 15 October in Canove, Cesuna and Treschè Conca. 

There will be many events that will animate these weekends: workshops for adults and children, shows, games, guided excursions, show cooking, wood sculptors, craft markets, photographic exhibitions, food stands ... and much more!

There will also be the unmissable train of Vèrben that runs along some sections of the road of the Old Railway. 

In short, an event not to be missed!
