Holiday Apartment in Preore: Trails, Rock and History

Preore can be discovered on two levels: through trails and rock, and through the history of Manez and the local communities. During your stay in a holiday apartment in Preore, it helps to plan your days around these different focuses. This allows you to compare short walks, a longer circular tour, via ferrata experiences and explorations of the area’s cultural history.

Churches and Historic Places of Remembrance

The first church in Preore was built in 1321 at a different location and was destroyed by a flood of the Sarca in 1772. The present-day church is dedicated to Santa Maria Maddalena. Another historic point of reference is the Campanile di Vigo, where public assemblies of the Comunità di Preore were held. Together with the traces around Manez, these places give your stay a historical dimension that can easily be combined with a hike through the surrounding area.

Manez and the Regola di Spinale e Manez

Preore, together with Montagne and Ragoli, belongs to the Regola di Spinale e Manez. Founded in 1377, this community manages communal assets for social purposes. The first known statute of Manez also dates from 1377. Bafàl, in the Preore area, is considered the place where the public rule and the council of Monte di Manez were held. Anyone interested in local traditions and the development of community structures will find concrete points of reference here beyond mere impressions of the landscape.

Easy Trails Around Preore

Access to Val Manez leads from Preore via Cort, Larzana and Binio. Historically, these places were districts of the municipality of Montagne and today belong to Tre Ville. The Senter da l'acqua is an easy trail 2 km long, with an elevation gain of 180 m and a duration of about one hour. It begins in Vigo di Ragoli behind the historic Casa Rusca and ends in Preore at the Capitello di San Giovanni Nepomuceno. Sound stations are located at Casa Rusca, Doccia delle Riziere, Oselera, Rio Manez and Buston. This allows you to include a manageable route with several stops in your day’s plans.

Tour to the Bastia del Baticler

The Giro della Bastia di Baticler is of moderate difficulty and takes about half a day. It starts at the Sesena sports centre and follows the cycle path counterclockwise towards Preore. The route then continues through Montagne, the Niere locality and Provaiolo to the possibly Roman ruins of the Bastia del Baticler on the mountain slopes. The different route lengths and difficulty levels make it easier to plan varied days without having to set every activity to the same pace.

Rock and Ferrata Art-pinistica

The Ferrata Art-pinistica in Preore runs across the easier rock bands and walls of the Croz de le Niere climbing wall. Its favourable orientation means that it can be used during large parts of the year. It therefore complements the trails around Preore with a mountain-related activity, while the historic sites and sound stations appeal to other interests.
