The Park authority’s head office, located in a perfect panoramic position overlooking the Musi mountain range and the Canin Massif, houses a modern visitor centre containing displays which reproduce the different natural environments (river, woodland scrub, grassland and mountain) enhanced by geological finds, an audiovisual room, and a model of the protected area. It is a meeting place for all those wanting to get closer to the complex and wonderful world of the park.

The Information Centre stands at the foot of the imposing Musi mountain range and is set in one of the most evocative Friulian valleys – the Alta Val Torre.
It is a new centre which provides information on the protected area and on the surrounding region but which also has accommodation facilities. The centre contains an information desk, a library, the Park bookshop, display boards with descriptions of the Lusevera region and a meeting area equipped with tables and chairs.
All around there are natural attractions and facilities, such as the Valle Musi Nature Trail, a practice wall for climbing suitable also for kids, the “Per Tutti (for everyone)” educational trail, the fascinating hypogean system of the Grotte di Villanova (Villanova Caves), the Teaching Farms and the Ethnographic Museum, which will meet the demands of each and every tourist.

Economic activity in the Canal del Ferro Valley, especially in the Municipality of Resiutta, has long been influenced by the presence of a mine for the extraction of oil shale in the high valley of the Resartico River. These mining activities left many traces, which have now been collected by the Park authorities and which constitute a valuable source of information on the history and gruelling working conditions of mining.
The numerous displays, with accompanying photographs, illustrate the activities which were carried out in the mine, the history of the explorations, and the geological aspects other than those natural features of the area. There is also an striking full-scale reconstruction of a tunnel complete with a trolley. And there are many rock samples, especially the oil shale that was extracted, as well as the equipment used by the miners.
The exhibition is completed by a model of the valley showing the course of the ledges and tunnels and a computer presentation of the documents collected during the research carried out.

The permanent exhibition “Forests, Man, Economy in Friuli Venezia Giulia”, on display in Udine at the Friulian Museum of Natural History in 1986-87, has now been expanded and remounted at the Museum of the Venzone region (Palazzo Orgnani Martina). The exhibition constitutes an educational journey across one of the most complex ecosystems: the Forest.
Mounted in three rooms and comprising models and dioramas, it illustrates the history of forests and forest ecosystems, the fauna that live within them and the function and uses of trees.

The Canin Massif area is one of the most sought-after international destinations for speleologists and researchers in the field due to its specificities linked to the karst phenomena and its caves (more than 1,000).
The exhibition, mounted next door to the tourist information office in Sella Nevea, houses stone and concretionary samples as well as materials and equipment used in speleological activities, providing students with a realistic picture of the area’s geological varieties. It also contains a large-scale model reproducing a significant section of the Canin area and its subterranean world.
