A walk to discover the fantastic world of wood, between past and present, ancient uses and new technologies
The route “From the Forest to Home” aims to be an immersion in the fantastic world of wood. Walking along the paths around Grumes, we will try together to discover the relationship that has linked man to the forest ecosystem for millennia, understood as an environment to confront but also as a precious economic resource, especially for Alpine populations. This close relationship has generated artisanal professions (carpenters and sawyers) who knew how to use different types of wood depending on their intended use. Along the route, we will encounter the water-powered sawmill, the forest ecosystem, the historic chestnut grove, and modern sawmills and carpentries ending at Green Grill-Info and Flavors, the house of the Rete di Riserve entirely built of wood.
