Opened in 2005, this open-air site contains 150 engraved rocks, most dating from 2000 to 1000 BC. Carved hunters, plough scenes and single figures are spread along five colour-coded paths, with signage providing a helpful context.
The highlight is the so-called 'Bedolina map' found in the upper reaches of the park and believed to be a primitive topographic map of sorts depicting the surrounding territory.
