Sensorial walk
The third edition of the review Traces of Foliage is dedicated to autumn senses. After colors and flavors, the palette of autumn leaves connects to the clear sensations we can experience in nature.
The fifth meeting will be on Saturday, October 25 at 08:45 with Ester Andrich and Francesca Barp, from the Isoipse association, to experience a profound connection with nature.
In autumn, when humans increase their layers of clothing, deciduous trees go against the trend: they shed their leaves! They do so with elegance and mastery, in a parade of colors and shapes that engages all the senses.
On the proposed walk, we will meet master trees, inhabitants of the Col di Roanza woods, listen to their stories, opening our senses to capture the hidden messages that nature has for each of us. In a time that suggests we should all be, always, evergreens and always performing, plants show the beauty of being multicolored, multifaceted, inviting us to let go of what is no longer needed, indicating that, after blooming and bearing fruit, it is now time to take a moment to slow down.
Technical notes
The experience will take place on a 2.5 km route on predominantly flat dirt road with a short but intense ascent (100 meters of elevation gain) on a woodland path. The ascent will be taken at a slow pace so that everyone can manage the effort. The overall route is easy, but it requires a willingness to walk on trails (dirt, roots, stones).
The walk will also take place in case of gentle autumn drizzle.
Distance: 2.5 km
Elevation gain: 150 m
Duration: 3h and 30 min
Meeting point at Rifugio Zio Stefano – via Col di Roanza, 61 BL – at 9:00 AM – 12:30 PM
At the end of each group, a snack from “Zio Stefano” in companionship.
