The Foran dal Mus geological trail was designed to offer visitors to the Park the chance to fully appreciate one of the most peculiar and suggestive aspects of the protected area: the extraordinary geological phenomena of the highest part of the Canin Massif. These areas, dear to climbers and speleologists, hold within them the charm of water-carved stone that shapes surfaces and descends into the deepest mountain depths, the dwellings of spirits and fantastic beings that populate the legends of these lands. Their extraordinary companions are the flowers and animals an attentive eye can spot in the vast rock garden.
The long route allows a full immersion in these breathtaking environments thanks to the descent to the upper Goriuda hut and the subsequent return to Sella Nevea along paths of great historical value.
