Art at altitude

How many forms can wood take? Find out on an easy route where you can meet a majestic eagle, a pack of wolves and the imposing "Bregostana", the witch that lives in the woods and Ladin legends.

A scenic route, where the incredible works in wood and natural materials, created by the artist Francesco Avancini, come to life in front of the most beautiful views of the Dolomites... The first you will encounter, after getting out of the gondola, will be the guardians of the Buffaure: a pack of five giant wolves that observe the basin from the side of the mountain. Continuing on, you can take the chairlift that will take you to an altitude of 2,400 metres, to an incredible panoramic viewpoint. Just below the arrival you will find the butterfly-shaped bench with a view of Sassolungo, Sassopiatto and the Sella Group. Don't miss the opportunity for an unforgettable shot. Descending on foot for half an hour, to Baita Cuz Rifugio, you will find the giant eagle, whose wings were made with 220 larch boards. Once back in the basin, a bench with dragonfly wings awaits you, another in the shape of a dragon and the legendary "Bregostana": fearsome, huge and made with the recovered wood of the Vaia storm. About ten minutes downhill, the thrones of King Laurin allow you to admire the villages of Vigo and Pozza from above. And remember: before taking the gondola back, stop by the top station to enjoy the view from the giant deckchairs!
