Two hundred and fifty million years ago, where the small municipality of Dogna stands today, the aetosaur lived. A prehistoric reptile, an ancestor of crocodiles, it left its traces in these rocks before the Alps existed, before Friuli existed, before anything recognisable in today's landscape existed. This is where the MACA route in Dogna begins.
Dogna is a small village, but it carries layers of history that are hard to match. The route opens with a visit to the Museo del Territorio, where palaeontological finds and testimonies from the Great War coexist in a story that crosses geological eras and human centuries. Then you go outside, and the village itself becomes a museum: Dogna's alleys host murals and art installations that turn the walk into something unexpected, suspended between memory and contemporaneity.
With MACA, every stop has a voice. The app accompanies visitors from the Museo del Territorio to the last alley of the village, connecting the dots between different eras and restoring to Dogna the depth it deserves.
The route is easy, takes about an hour and a half and is suitable in every season. Before setting off, it is advisable to check the opening hours of the Museo del Territorio, as they may vary.
