THE LANDSCAPE

Parco Regionale Spina Verde — outdoor classroom

The program takes place entirely within Spina Verde, offering fresh air, woodland and open-space settings where nature is used as the primary learning environment.

THE PROGRAM

Adventure, play and practical skills

Daily activities emphasize outdoor adventure, play and ‘piccole competenze’ — small practical skills aimed at helping participants understand and interact with the local environment.

THE LOGISTICS

Multiple meeting points: Camerlata or Albate

Operations start from designated meeting points in the local communities — Piccolo Parco (Piazza Camerlata) or the Polveriera di Albate (Via Arcioni 8) — from which days in the park are organized.
