From the parking lot, we hike towards Malga Caldesa, and after about 40 minutes, we will glimpse the beginning of the "Fruscìo" sound trail. Wind chimes hang from towering larches, hollow trunks resonate under your touch, and a piano is perched atop a larch. A grassy square invites you to lay on wooden benches and gaze at the sky. Let yourself be lulled by the sound of the wind, the forest's song… you’ll feel at peace! Recharged by the delightful Monroc picnic under an ancient tree, we continue our journey, listening to Attilio's stories of the pastures and the surrounding area. The forest’s energy guides us back along the malga path to Malga Caldesa. It’s safe to say, the day… flew by!
