In Valle Maira, you will not find amusement parks or ski lifts, but a network of trails suitable even for the little ones, which often wind through enchanting landscapes and are enriched by fascinating stories about local culture and traditions. Along the way, you might even come across the famous sarvanot, the wood elves.

The wonders of this territory are not limited to the trails: artistic wooden sculptures adorn the landscapes, while treasure maps lead to dreamlike locations. Sparkling streams invite you to cool off, suspension bridges offer breathtaking views, and cycling paths allow you to explore the valley in a fun and adventurous way.

A program full of activities, workshops, and guided walks will make your visit even more memorable, allowing you to discover the many nuances of this enchanting territory.

These are just some of the experiences you can enjoy with your children in Valle Maira.

We look forward to welcoming you!

Valle Maira is a corner of wild and preserved nature, a place where time seems to have stood still and immersive experiences intertwine with the beauty of the landscape.

Here, far from the chaos and frenzy of the most famous tourist destinations, you can breathe true mountain air.

If you are traveling with children, you will have the opportunity to give them an authentic connection with the mountains, discovering their slow and profound rhythms. Young explorers will be able to savor nature through all five senses: listening to the rustling of leaves, smelling the aromas of wildflowers, watching the flight of birds, and touching the coolness of crystal-clear streams.
