A Journey Through Dolomite Time

At the spectacular summit of Col Margherita lies the Geo Walk, a newly renovated themed trail that combines nature, play, and geology. Designed to spark curiosity and engage visitors of all ages, this looped path unfolds in a breathtaking Dolomite setting—among panoramic ridges, layered rock formations, and fascinating traces of a prehistoric marine presence.

Created by the Ludosofici with scientific guidance from geologist Claudio Valle, the Geo Walk presents the geological evolution of the Dolomites in a simple and interactive way. From primordial volcanoes and glaciers to ancient seabeds, islands, and fossils, the trail leads visitors on an exciting journey through time.

Moving through time

The Geo Walk is an immersive experience designed for families, curious minds, and lovers of nature and science. Starting from the porphyritic terrace of Col Margherita, the easy trail is accessible to everyone, turning each step into a moment of wonder and awareness.

Every stop along the path invites reflection on time, the transformation of the landscape, and our deep connection with the Earth.

360° Panorama

In a distant past, the Dolomites were islands in a vast tropical sea. Today, those ancient islands have become the majestic mountains that, thanks to their extraordinary beauty and unique geology, have been recognized by UNESCO as a World Natural Heritage Site.

Col Margherita is a privileged vantage point—an ideal place to set sail on an imaginary journey through the Dolomite archipelago.

The Helm of the Dolomites

The symbolic heart of the trail is the panoramic helm at the summit, where your gaze can wander across the breathtaking mountain views.

Along the path, interactive installations, educational panels, fun facts, and hands-on activities encourage observation and learning—making science accessible and enjoyable for everyone.
