Description: from Soraga, starting from Hotel De Fronz, go up the steep "Troi de Pala" leading to Soraga Alta. At the cross way turn on the left and walk along the easy Strada de Gherghele until reaching the last houses of the hamlet. Pass the fountain, keep the right and ascend a small paved road ending in front of an apartment complex. Here the sensory path called "Sora L’Aga" begins: a barefoot itinerary in the spectacular "Garden of King Laurin", created by the local cultural and tourism association with the help of territory experts and the support of the local Municipality. Start walking along a grassy path winding up towards the forest. After a first steep stretch, the path turns to the left. Go ahead along easy ups and downs and reach a clearing. On the right a small natural Kneipp pool has been arranged. Move to the left and pass under a big arch made of intertwined branches. Descend along the path leading to an enchanted glade populated by dwarves. Go down towards the brook and ascend it for few meters by means of wooden walkway, small stepladders, moss and barks cover. The path is animated by wild animals carved into threes’ logs and by hydraulic wooden wheels. Thanks to water stream they set in motion some curious hammers, whose rhythmic sound echoes among pines and larches.
Come back to Soraga following the same path backwards, or, as an alternative, from the clearing take a dirt road, pass the bar and, after a short uphill stretch, follow the so called "Fitness Path". Follow the cycle route steeply descending to Hotel La Molinella.
Excursions accompanied by territorial experts got organized during the summer (on fee). The walk is not suitable for strollers.
How to get there: from Soraga centre follow the pavement along the main road up to Hotel Al Lago. Cross the road and go up "Troi de Pala". As an alternative, take the cycle route and get to the playground, cross the bridge and after passing a short ramp, turn to the right and take Strada de Riva which steeply leads to Soraga Alta (Strada de Gherghele). Otherwise, starting from the Tourism Information Office, cross the main road and cross the wooden walkway above river "Avisio". Go up the dirt path through the fields and get to the last houses of Strada de Gherghele.
