"Melinda and the Magic Box" is a themed circular route of about an hour that develops among the apple orchards and wooded areas around the hamlet of Romallo (Municipality of Novella), partly following the AlMeleto route.
The itinerary is divided into 10 stages, each marked by a wooden sculpture depicting an animal and a dedicated seat. The installations, created by Franz Avancini, accompany an illustrated story designed for the little ones, turning the walk into an interactive experience.
Along the path, you encounter in sequence various animals (fox, mouse, frog, mole, magpie, spider, butterfly, hare, and marten), each associated with a natural element and a variety of apple.
The route alternates between asphalt and dirt sections, crossing agricultural environments and a short pine forest area. The illustrated booklet guides children through all the stages, integrating storytelling and play thanks to activities such as stickers and codes to decipher.
Overall, the route combines walking, observation, and educational content, offering an experience suitable for families and easily accessible.
In the village of Romallo there are refreshment points. The booklet of "Melinda and the Magic Box" can be purchased at the Novella River Park office and the APT Val di Non tourist offices (Fondo, Coredo, and Cles).
It is ideal to combine the experience with other activities in the area, such as a visit to the Novella River Park or a walk in the nearby historic centers.
