Terres

The small locality of Terres has more than 300 inhabitants and is situated between the villages of Cunevo and Flavon, in the heart of the high plateau, west of the Noce river. The village is nestled among fruit orchards and forests and famous for the cultivation of the exquisite Golden Delicious, Renetta and Red Stark apples.

The parish church of the Saints Filippo and Giacomo was rebuilt in 1828 and the very ancient, Romanesque church of San Giorgio dating back to the year 1000 AD was probably built on an ancient pagan altar. Restored in 1550, this sacral building has Gothic elements, whereas the apsis was completely decorated with frescoes by the school of the Baschenis in 1400, making it a true artistic masterpiece.

Terres is also the starting point of the 2.4 km long tunnel through the accessible for cyclists and pedestrians, leading into the Val di Tovel and the eponymous and famous Lago di Tovel and the spectacular Glare area (average temperature in the tunnel: +10°C). Before crossing the tunnel, please check the weather conditions as well as the rules you need to follow for its use.
