Alternatively, you can access the themed trail from the Cristauta car park or directly from the valley station of the Col Raiser cable car.
Along the way you’ll find five information boards, each dedicated to a different bird species native to Val Gardena. Each board comes with a handcrafted, wooden sculpture carved by Thomas Delazer, one of Val Gardena’s master sculptors. The boards display interesting facts about each species’ habits, lifestyle, and characteristics. You can hear the bird’s calls by scanning the board’s QR code, making the experience even more engaging. Have we piqued your interest? Discover more on the “Troi de Frëines” path.
