The Slow Valleys of Natisone river
Between Friuli and Slovenia unknown and surprising lands
The “Albergo diffuso Valli del Natisone” (integrated multi-building accomodation) offers hospitality at holiday homes distributed across the boroughs and villages of the municipalities of Stregna and Grimacco, in the Slow Valleys of Natisone river. Lovely lodges set in the enchanted atmosphere of the woods and mountains dominated by Mount Matajur.

The Kolovrat mountain and the memories of the 1st World War
On the high plains of Mt. Kolovrat in the municipality of Drenchia, there are still many traces of WW1 to be found. It is an area that is really an open-air museum which winds its way through trenches, look-out points, walkways and artillery firing stations, all still visible today.
The path of remembrance continues in the nearby Slovenian town of Kobarid (Caporetto) with its worldrenowned museum dedicated to the Great War. Other local WW1 places to visit include: a private collection of memorabilia at Tribil Superiore & Kambreško.
