Description: Through the Cellina Valley, rich in water, geological stratifications, enchanting panoramas, we will reach the foot of the Friulian Dolomites where we will have the opportunity to skirt a succession of artificial lakes, until we reach the ponderous work of the Vajont dam that resisted the terrible disaster caused by the gigantic landslide of Mount Toc. We will have the opportunity to see various towns and areas where tourism has its development because it is favored by opportunities for splendid walks, excursions, famous climbs (such as those on the tower of Val Montanaia) and quiet stays in picturesque towns. We will also visit the historical museums until we reach the one dedicated to dinosaurs of which geological finds have left traces up to today.
