Winter among the Pale di San Martino feels a little like stepping into a fairy tale – with its snow-covered forests, ancient castles, fiery sunsets, and the curious little creatures that peek out from behind snow-laden trees.
To whom might those footprints in the fresh white snow belong? A hare, perhaps – or a fox? And who has been nibbling at the pine cones scattered on the ground? And that hole in the tree trunk? Could it be the work of a woodpecker? A walk through the woods during the most magical time of year gives children the chance to explore, discover and be amazed by the many surprises nature has in store.
Here are some easy routes, perfect for their first little adventures, to enjoy on foot or with snowshoes, hand in hand with mum and dad. Step by step, discovery after discovery, as the snow crunches underfoot and the air grows richer with the scent of pine, you’ll share unforgettable experiences together – memories to treasure forever in your family album.
