    The "Via degli Stavoli" is part of the thematic trails of the Resia Valley Ecomuseum and offers an opportunity to learn about Resian stavoli. These constituted real highland villages with everything necessary to live self-sufficiently for several months. The Via leads to Ruschis, which, because of the excellent state of preservation of the village and the very old sundials placed on its buildings, turns out to be one of the most interesting localities in the entire valley.

    Until a few decades ago, when the life of the community was closely linked to the rhythms of nature, they represented authentic highland villages where men and herds moved during the summer season for the traditional practices of mountain pasture. In these environments there was everything necessary to live in self-sufficiency until the arrival of autumn, when the cold weather forced one to return to the villages.
