Musical journey to our earth’s history

A musical journey to the history of our earth: It’s already 10 years ago, that the Dolomites were nominated UNESCO World Heritage. The GEOPARC Bletterbach will celebrate this anniversary with a special music: Rupert Hechensteiner from St. Pauls composed a new work for our traditional music band of Aldein.
The inspiration he got during his walks trough the GEOPARC Bletterbach. The initiative was financed by the Autonomous Province of Bolzano – Culture Office.
Therefore, all brass band fans could be curios, how the composer interpreted the Dolomites UNESCO World Heritage Bletterbach and its geological characteristics.

Ausblick in die Vergangenheit

After the musical opening of a very special evening in the GEOPARC Bletterbach, we will walk to the panoramic point above the Visitors Centre. There, we however won’t call your attention to the deep gorge, but invite you to look at the dark sky: thanks to two telescopes you will see the planets Saturn and Jupiter as well as some of the most beautiful constellations… and maybe – with a bit of luck – also some falling stars.
The astronomer David Gruber and the geologist Benno Baumgartner from the Nature Museum South Tyrol will explain you the origins, the characteristics and the particularities of stars and planets.

Südtirol Balance

Pause for a moment, listen to your body and take a deep breath: this motto describes very well the concept of Südtirol Balance. Recharge your batteries, regain your strengh an recalibrate your internal rhythm – far from your everyday life. As GEOPARC Bletterbach we take part of this initiative: all partecipants to our guided tours receive a South Tyrolean apple to taste during the walk through the canyon. We aroused your curiosity? Then look at the programme of our Tourist Association Aldein-Radein-Jochgrimm… in collaboration with the Consortium of South Tyrolean Fruit Growers‘ Co-operatives (VOG).

The exploration of the universe – actual highlights and future developments

Geological analogies

What do have to do with each other the European Space Agency ESA and the GEOPARC Bletterbach?
We will tell you about it in July… a photo exhibition at the Visitors Centre will show you the similarities between the sandstones of the Bletterbach gorge and on Mars. Sounds interesting?
Then you have the possibility to meet the German astronaut Thomas Reiter, which will be our guest on saturday, 13th July at the Pfarrheim Aldein to tell you about actual ESA-projects and researches aswell as about the plan to nominate the Bletterbach “Mars Analogue Site”…
