Artists’ Forest

Walking in a fairytale forest….

Bosco degli Artisti is a fun attraction you can visit at Le Buse, a large plateau at an altitude of 1800 m approx. a.s.l., which you can reach with the gondola lift that starts out from Molino, or on foot, along a little road amid the woods that starts out from the provincial road that leads to the Valles Pass. In winter, it is the departure point for the San Pellegrino Ski area, and in summer, it’s a fabulous place for walks, to spend a day enjoying the sunshine or for a high-altitude hike.

The plateau is home to a small wood that looks down onto the Val del Biois below, with views out over Falcade and the surrounding mountains. A clearly marked route of about 1 km has been designed through the woods, placed along which are the works of a number of local artists, inspired by mountain life. Between the works of the human artists, you can also admire the splendid constructions shaped by the red wood ant: the amazing architecture of these anthills testifies to the engineering skills of these industrious little insects. Especially recommended for children! The route takes about an hour, and is clearly marked with eye-catching information tables.
