Hello, Im Renzo, and as a geology enthusiast, Ill guide you in reading the history of time written in stone.

The mountains surrounding Sauris form part of the Carnic Alps and preserve the memory of a tropical sea that disappeared over 250 million years ago: in the dolomite and limestone that outcrop along the way, you can still make out the fossilised remains of that ancient life. Well take a leisurely stroll through the village streets and out to the edge of the woodland, observing the rock strata as if they were pages of a geological book, to understand what the depths of time truly means.

A journey of reflection and observation, designed for adults keen to explore the history of the area in a more technical and informed way.
