The Pyramids of Segonzano in Trentino

Do you think that to see the pyramids you have to go to Egypt or South America? Yes and no. If you want to see the pyramids created by the wise hand of man, you can't do without the journey if instead you want to see the pyramids created by Mother Nature, just come to Trentino & lt; /strong>.

Segonzano is actually a large area located on the slopes of the Dosso di Segonzano and Ceramont, and consists of sixteen hamlets located at an altitude ranging from 430 to 1543 m a.s.l. Each small hamlet offers something nice to see.

In Segonzano there are the ruins of the castle portrayed in a famous painting by Dürer. The painter's name also carries the path that leads from the Klösterle of San Floriano to the Pyramids of Segonzano.

From Sabion you can go to the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Help, in Stedro you can see the Parish Church of the Trinity and Segonzano is famous for its earth pyramids. It can be well said that nature has given its best: these curious architectural forms, which reach even more than 20 meters, is a mixture of land and small pebbles, cemented and hardened, but also easily erodible.The pyramids are covered with a “hat” shape that repairs the structures from the rain and therefore from a slow melting as demonstrate the remains of some pyramids without this little finish.
