Just beyond the Öl Ricreation Area near Collepietra in the Val d'Ega, a giant wooden rocket treehouse stands proudly in a forest. It's one of the stops along the 12-kilometre-long Star Trail, but you can also visit it independently. Local schoolchildren contributed ideas to the trail's design, and seating areas invite you to relax and linger.
From the Collepietra village square, you can reach the rocket treehouse, with its towers and wooden NASA lettering, in just 40 minutes via hiking trail number 2. This unique woodland playground promises intergalactic fun. The return journey follows the same route.
Collepietra is part of Europe's First Star Village, which also includes highlights such as the Planetarium South Tyrol in San Valentino in Campo and the Astronomical Observatory.
