CARPEGNA PARK
“Children need to know themselves as much as they need to discover the world; and this kind of information can be obtained only acting in the world, that is through the interaction between human beings. Children need more experience and less television.” John Condry, 1993.
In 2013 the “Parco Acrobatico Forestale” (Forest Acrobatic Park) was created in the territory of Carpegna at about 1000 m above sea level. It is an equipped area with 11 paths among trees, where the environmental impact is zeroed. It is in the middle of the Natural Park of Simone and Simoncello. The context is very interesting and important thanks to its landscape and suitable for walks.
