Pathway of senses, a connection between the Linear Parkwith the lake under the hill. A natural passage under the raiway line where the visitor introduces into a field of finoccio flowers, to make a walking route that finishes with a platform, suspended on the water. A walking line that gets into the field to discover different situations and evocations. Along the pathway the visitors discover small rooms as reflection spaces and different landscape observatories.

The project explores a field between architecture, art and landscape, experimenting with different instruments and materials through self construction along the Linear Park (former railway and train station) of San Michele di Ganzaria, in order to build small pavilions for landwatching using natural materials from the context: river canes, hay, firewood, ropes, soil.
