The main
purpose of the project is to protect and improve the rural, cultural, natural
and architectural landscape of the most characteristic and ancient part of the
territory of Moghegno, and in particular the area of the “Grotti”, as well as
the ancient communication route that connects the Lower Maggia Valley with the Upper
Maggia Valley. At the same time, we want to promote economic opportunities
linked to local tourism and create opportunities for social interactions, not
only for the inhabitants of the village, but also for the entire municipal
area.
The
aim of the project is to bring together multiple points of interest into a
single path. The points of interest were selected following an assessment of
the historical and cultural wealth present in the area, and they were arranged on
a circuit that almost entirely embraces Moghegno’s nucleus and its countryside.
The beneficiary of this global educational path will be the community of
Moghegno, direct heir of this heritage, but also the whole region, including school
groups, and not least, hopefully, more and more tourists. Some of these points
of interest have already been the subject of restoration in recent years by the
Ente Patriziale and the Municipal Authority, with the help of associations
operating in favor of the territory (Centro Natura Vallemaggia, APAV) or, in
other cases, by private individuals. Other points of interest are still in need
of restoration.
