School in the park

There are numerous proposals for School Tourism in the Park area. For many years we have organised trips and school camps, dedicated excursions, educational and experiential workshops with children and young people of all ages held in several languages (Italian, English, French, German andf Spanish). For secondary school students in particular, the Park also offers work-school experiences. For information on educational activities write to: info@parcocollinemetallifere.it

In order to narrate the story of the rich BIODIVERSITY and the unique GEODIVERSITY of this area and let people experience it first-hand, educational kits have been created, accompanied by a short guide to the recognition of rocks and minerals in the Park, suitable for environmental educators, guides, teachers and students. 

Below are interactive online games for children of various ages, updated periodically, with which you can learn about the special features of this area while having fun.

These are the educational kits available to schools, museums and info points in the Park.
