O znamenitosti

Hitre informacije: Vzporedne terase so starodavne ledeniške obale, nastale pred približno 12.000 leti, ko je bila dolina poplavljena z ledeniškim jezerom. Ostanki prikazujejo tri ravni teras, ki so jasno vidne vzdolž doline na različnih nadmorskih višinah.

Poudarki: Robovi teh teras se raztezajo na skoraj 5 kilometrov in so visoki do 30 metrov, kar ustvarja skoraj popolne naravne linije na pobočju. Lahko hodiš dolge razdalje in uživaš v občutku lebdenja nad pokrajinami, ki se zdijo naslikane, s panoramskimi pogledi na polja in gore.

Notranji nasveti

Wear comfortable, sturdy footwear to walk over irregular, rocky terrain.
Sunrise and sunset offer the best light for photographing the terraces with defined shadows.
Avoid rainy weekends to enjoy the landscape without mud or slips.
The longest trail offers full views and fewer crowds than the short route.
