Val Masino
[wds id=”12″]
“All travelers, who stay in Morbegno, should spend some hours in the Val Masino valley. A clean creek rich in trout sounds along the rocky bottom of the valley; traces of ice age are evident on the rounded surface of the rocks… we were all in agreement that there isn’t any known valley, that exceeds the Val Masino in natural variety and beauty.” S.E. Kennedy First Disgrazia’s climber
Val Masino is a land of legends and big hiking events. An old beech forest, a hot spring dating back to 400 ‘, and the creek Masino are the ingredients of this project marked by the rhythm of a chant written for the occasion, “The Lady of the Source.” Steps, stone, and sounds: three words, simple and ‘sound’ of a journey in stages made from stone and woodworks from corten artists who represented the fundamental themes of the valley. For example geology with Menir, vegetation with tree Beech wise, reptiles with the bench – salamander, or the source with the sculpture of the Lady of the Fountain.
