Workshops

Traditions and Customs of the Mills in Serra d'Arga


Walking in Serra d'Arga is walking in a special place on the globe. Imagine we were living a few centuries ago, our mountain was inhabited by monks, simple and wise people who lived among the various peaks.

Are you curious to know what their habits were?

Would you like to understand the traditions and customs of the Mills in this area?

We will tell you the story.

Testing a mountain water filter



Have you ever heard of a mountain water filter? Have you ever used one?

Along the way we will test a mountain water filter. Have you ever tried drinking from the water you find along the way? With this filter you can try it out.

Can you imagine what will come out of it?
