The found water: the big olle


Due to the exclusivity of the environmental goods, for their rarity and the high value of the flora rich of endemic species, the springs on the farm represent a great naturalistic value site. Helped by a relief model, by experiments, by observation forms and by the excursion to the olle the children are guided along the exploration and the acquaintance of this particular environment in the lowland of Friuli region.
