The Camuni awaits you in the National Park, full of rock engravings of Naquane in Capo di Ponte, UNESCO heritage site.

 

Over 14 hectares with 104 rocks that tell of the life of the inhabitants of the Valley, from the Neolithic onwards.
In the zig-zag between the Alps, with changes of perspective and landscape, do not forget to stop for some delicious cheeses such as Mascherpa or savoury sausages such as Strinù, the undisputed protagonist of the barbecues. Or if you feel like something sweet? There is the Spongada, soft and light.
Your search for the sacred has been resolved by the Sanctuary of the Via Crucis in Cerveno, with 14 masterpiece stations: 14 chapels on either side of a staircase, with groups of wooden and plaster sculptures, 198 statues dating back to 1700.
Almost without realizing it, you have arrived in Breno: take the last sprint of the day walking up to his castle, built by Federico Barbarossa in 1100.
