Parco Naturale Paneveggio - Pale di San Martino

38050 Caoria (TN)

Municipality: Canal San Bovo

Region: Trentino Alto Adige

In the westernmost section of the Park, represented by Valle del Vanoi, there is the town of Caoria. Here, the former elementary school premises welcome a Visitor Center entirely dedicated to the historical, ethnographic, and anthropological features of the area called Casa del Sentiero Etnografico (House of the Ethnographic Trail), a project of the Park to recover not only the handicrafts of a territory which has been by now partly abandoned, but also the historical memory. During the summer, the center houses interesting temporary exhibits. Not far from the Visitor Center, following the old Sentiero dei Reversi, it is possible to reach the western gate of the Protected Area where tourists will find the small museum Pra de Madègo, dedicated to human activities linked to the mountains where, with the help of drawings, photos, and historical videos, it will be possible to reconstruct things and places, houses and buildings, forges and sawmills, and become aware of the history of a recent past.
