Le marmotte, sentinelle della Val Venegia
Join us for an immersive afternoon in Val Venegia, the heart of the Dolomites! Together with an expert zoologist, you will explore the colonies of marmots. At the end of the activity, a tasty snack awaits you at Malga Venegiota
Special features: thick and rough fur, protruding teeth, unmistakable whistle. The physiological and behavioral characteristics typical of the marmot make it an extremely interesting subject of study; in fact, its presence can be an important indicator of how the high-altitude environment is changing.
In the company of an expert zoologist, you can spend an afternoon as a real researcher in Val Venegia, a wonderful Dolomite setting that is also a sample area for a multi-year monitoring project led by the Park Authority focused precisely on this exceptional alpine rodent. You will take part firsthand in the data collection activity, and in between one observation and another, you will discover more about the scientific research work carried out daily by the Park.
At the end of the surveys, a delicious snack awaits you at Malga Venegiota, with cakes and typical sweets made in-house.
