The main boulders are located in an easily accessible area and surrounded by a forest road. In the area are indicated all the places that have engraved boulders: the route, however, will have to identify the tourist personally. Near the boulders you will find a sign indicating the number corresponding to that of the map. Have fun!

Beschreibung
Most of the cuppellari boulders of Verdabbio occupy an extensive area upstream of the village. On an area of about 3 hectares there are 14 sites. These blocks are most likely part of a giant postglacial landslide. The main boulders are located in an easily accessible area and surrounded by a forest road. In the area are indicated all the places that have engraved boulders: the route, however, will have to identify the tourist personally. Near the boulders you will find a sign indicating the number corresponding to that of the map. Have fun!
But what are cuppellar boulders?
Cuppellar boulders are boulders of various shapes and sizes that have on their surface – generally smooth following the abrasion of glaciers – incisions (mainly in the shape of crosses or cups) not attributable to natural causes but intentionally performed by the hand of man.
The cuppellar boulders were already known in the Middle Ages and the places of discovery are known to the local population.
They are particularly widespread in the Alps, but not only. There are them all over the world.
Geheimtipp
Wegbeschreibung
The route follows a forest road well accessible from the square of Verdabbio but can be freely interpreted by tourists, who can go looking for the various cuppellari boulders entering the woods.
