The International Exhibition of Skiing and Winter Sports – “Trails of Glory”, represents the evolution of the exhibition “Trails of Glory”, and offers a journey through the past, present, and future of winter sports, relating the Venetian mountains, sports practice, technological innovation, and territorial development.
The initiative enhances the historical heritage of skiing alongside the most recent technological and productive advancements. The exhibition path is a true journey: from the historical charm of skis and equipment from the twentieth century to present technological innovations, passing through environmental sustainability and high-level scientific research applied to winter sports. The setup highlights the wood from Cansiglio, emphasizing the connection to the territory and the commitment to the circular economy.
The exhibition includes, among other things, a university hub curated by the universities of Padua, Bologna, and Verona, stands from companies in the winter sports system, multimedia installations, spaces dedicated to sustainability and the agri-food excellences of Veneto, as well as the Interreg Italy–Austria 2021–2027 project on the development of Ski-Land between Belluno and Innsbruck.
The exhibition, which is free to enter, is open to the public until February 28, at Pavilion E of Longarone Fiere Dolomiti. The exhibition project, which has an international scope, is designed in anticipation of the Winter Olympics and Paralympics Milan-Cortina 2026.
