Immense distese verdi, paesaggi carsici, fortezze arroccate su imponenti colline, parchi nazionali, monti maestosi, piccoli paesi montani e palazzi d’epoca; queste tra le principali meraviglie che sorgono lungo il percorso del fiume più bello d’Europa, il Soča (l’Isonzo). Il suo colore verde smeraldo regala il nome alla selezione di quattro itinerari che il Gruppo Hit, principale corporate multinazionale turistica slovena, propone con la collaborazione dell’Ente Turismo sloveno per promuovere il patrimonio turistico locale sia nella stagione invernale che in quella estiva. I percorsi turistici vedono Nova Gorica (in foto) come punto di partenza per proseguire alla scoperta delle bellezze naturalistiche che caratterizzano la Sloveniaed in particolare la Valle del fiume Vipava (Vipacco), del fiume Soča (Isonzo), il Brda (Collio Sloveno)e il Kras (Carso sloveno). La cittadina, fondata dopo la seconda guerra mondiale,è unita con la città italiana di Gorizia (come testimonia il mosaico della piazza Transalpina che si divide tra i due Stati) e accoglie le principali strutture ricettive che il Gruppo Hit ha predisposto per il soggiorno. Tra queste, Il Perla e il Park Casinò & Hotel a quattro stelle e gli alberghi Lipa e Sabotin a tre stelle.

  • Origin and Relationships of Astragalus Vesicarius Subsp. Pastellianus (Fabaceae) from the Vinschgau Valley (Val Venosta, Italy)
    Gredleriana Vol. 9 / 2009 pp. 119- 134 Origin and relationships of Astragalus vesicarius subsp. pastellianus (Fabaceae) from the Vinschgau Valley (Val Venosta, Italy) Elke Zippel & Thomas Wilhalm Abstract Astragalus vesicarius subsp. pastellianus is present in the most xerothermic parts of the Italian Alps at a few localized sites. Two populations are known from the Adige region, one at the locus classicus at Monte Pastello (lower Adige, Lessin Mountains) and another in the Vinschgau Valley (upper Adige), and there is a further population 250 km westwards in the Aosta Valley. The relationships of this taxon were investigated with molecular sequencing and fingerprinting methods.Astragalus vesicarius subsp. pastellianus shows a clear genetic differentiation in a Western and an Eastern lineage as it is known from several other alpine and subalpine species. The population at Monte Pastello is closely related to the populations in the Aosta Valley and to the subspecies vesicarius from the French Alps, whereas the populations from the Vinschgau Valley (South Tyrol) belong to the Eastern lineage, together with the subspecies carniolicus from the Julian Alps. Therefore, the origin of the Vinschgau populations seems to be in Eastern refugia and not in the open Southern Adige Valley which would be plausible from a geographical point of view. Keywords: Astragalus vesicarius subsp. pastellianus, phylogeography, AFLP, nuclear and chloroplast marker, South Tyrol, Southern Alps, Italy 1. Introduction One of the rarest plant taxa in the Alps is Astragalus vesicarius subsp. pastellianus (Pollini) Arcangeli. It was first described by POLLINI (1816) from Monte Pastello in the Lessin Mountains between Verona and Lake Garda (Northern Italy) and is currently known from a few disjunct locations in the Italian Alps such as the locus classicus at Monte Pastello, and two inner alpine valleys, the Vinschgau Valley (Valle Venosta) and the Aosta Valley (Valle d’Aosta), as well as from the Maurienne in the French Alps.

  • Recent Demographic Trends in the Northern Borderland Between Italy and Slovenia: Stabilization Or Further Redistribution of Population?
    Europ. Countrys. · 1· 2014 · p. 50-67 DOI: 10.2478/euco-2014-0005 European Countryside MENDELU RECENT DEMOGRAPHIC TRENDS IN THE NORTHERN BORDERLAND BETWEEN ITALY AND SLOVENIA: STABILIZATION OR FURTHER REDISTRIBUTION OF POPULATION? Damir Josipovič1 Received 26 November 2012; Accepted 20 September 2013 Abstract: The contribution presents findings from the research on a constitution of new ethnic identities in Alps-Adriatic region. The key question dealt here with was to which extent the recent demographical processes impact the peripheral, mountainous, and ethnically specific cross-border region between Slovenia and Italy. In lay and professional discourse there is still omnipresent mentality of extinguishing Slovene minority in Italy. Applying various demographical methods the article resolves the demographical processes and quantifies the extent of the local Slovene speakers. The author argues that the recent demographical processes of heavy depopulation tend to stabilize towards stagnation. Depopulation is stronger in the Slovenian part of the region, though the traditional Slovene-speaking areas in Italy aren’t as threatened as the adjacent Friulian areas. New migration trends along with the generally low fertility contribute to changes in traditional dualistic structure and bring refreshment to remote parts of the border region as well. Key-words: Alps-Adriatic, Venetian Slovenia, Slavia Veneta, Friuli Venezia Giulia, Slovenes in Italy, Valcanale, Resia, Upper Soča/Isonzo Valley, demography, border region Izvleček: Prispevek predstavlja izsledke raziskave o konstituciji novih etničnih identitet v prostoru Alpe-Jadran. Temeljno vprašanje, ki ga prispevek razrešuje, je, na kakšen način aktualni demografski procesi vplivajo na prekomejno periferno gorsko območje, ki je zaznamovano tudi z etničnimi specifikami. V strokovnem in laičnem diskurzu je še vedno močno prisotna miselnost, da slovenska manjšina na italijanski strani meje izumira.

A century ago, the Slovenian territory, stretching from the Goriška region, the Soča Valley and Karst, saw some of the fiercest mountain warfare in the history of man. The famous writer Ernest Hem- ingway portrayed the Isonzo Front in his novel Farewell to Arms. The war-scarred past is woven into the tapestry of history and heritage of the Goriška region. Wartime stories that were set against the backdrop of these valleys and forests, and these mountain sides and summits that offer such mag- nificent views of the Alps and the Mediterranean Sea, made their way into the oral tradition of the local people. In the past, war divided people, only to unite them today. You are invited to meet the friendly locals and private collectors of World War I artefacts, who have dedicated most of their lives to researching and preserving the memory of their grandfathers.
