The Bosco degli Gnomi (Gnomes' Forest) in Zone is one of the most fairytale-like and beloved places in Sebino: an easy and evocative trail where 44 wooden sculptures, carved by Luigi Zatti known as Il Rosso, accompany the hiker along the mule track that climbs towards Monte Guglielmo. It is perfect for families, photographers, and for those who want a "magical" access to Palmarusso and then Almici. 🌲 Bosco degli Gnomi — Essential information - Location: Zone (BS), trail start at Goi de la Tromba – Polset - Trail marker: 227 - Duration: about 1 hour for the "fairytale" part - Difficulty: easy, but with short steep climbs - Sculptures: 44 works carved into trunks from 1998 onwards - Artist: Luigi Zatti (Il Rosso), local farmer-sculptor - Suitable for: families, children, hikers heading towards Palmarusso/Almici/Guglielmo - Services: picnic tables along the route

Beautiful via ferrata of medium difficulty. Even where there are no artificial holds, the rock usually offers nice pockets. I honestly preferred to do it with climbing shoes since it develops entirely vertically.

Zone is a delightful old village with a bar and small grocery store. There are also a few restaurants. Be sure to visit the Pizza World Champion!
