San Cristoforo Path | Val Meduna Ring

Val Meduna is perhaps the most intimate and hidden route of this journey.

Leaving the plain, here you enter another world made of small villages, woods, waters and rocks, climbs and descents that engage you even more in living the body and freeing the mind, to dedicate yourself to the contemplation of the genuine beauty of this valley.

Meduno welcomes you as a gateway to these treasures, a small town made up of hamlets, like islands, connected by woods and a thousand paths. It is the starting point for a climb that will take you to contemplate the Prealps and then the Alps stretching almost infinitely to the north, or the Friulian plain up to the Gulf of Trieste on the Adriatic Sea.

Monte Valinis is the highest point of the San Cristoforo Path, a privileged place from which the "travelers" of the air launch themselves with their hang gliders and paragliders, slender figures you will see soaring like the birds of prey in these areas, above the beds of the Meduna and Tagliamento, the last wild river of Europe.

After admiring the world from above and leaving Meduno behind you, the invitation is to enter a privileged space and time, of small silent or abandoned villages, witnesses of an era of absolute symbiosis with the forces of nature. Those living forces, of rocks, trees, meadows and sudden pools with vibrant colors that surprise those like you who are looking for something more, beyond appearances.

Standard hiking equipment.
