Description

Every year artists from near and far meet at the sculpture symposium in Sur En and work on a piece of art for one week in early summer. The resulting works are then presented to the public for exhibition in the open air on the sculpture path. This easy tour starts at the Sper la Punt restaurant in Sur En. Passing the rope park, visitors reach more than 50 works by local and international sculptors on forest roads and paths through numerous small clearings. Small boards provide information about the respective artist as well as regarding the motto and style of the individual sculpture. Via Plan da l'Ogna and Plan da la Jürada, visitors subsequently reach the Val d'Uina restaurant at the entrance to the valley by the same name. The route takes you along the tarred road back to the starting point at the campsite with the PostBus stop.
