The elliptic-shaped Fanes-Senes-Braies visitor centre in S. Vigilio di Marebbe is easily recognisable. In the entrance hall you can find an info point. The exhibition path runs along some ramps complete with display cabinets and information boards providing interesting information on the formation of the Dolomites, everyday life in the mountains and the bear of Conturines. Downstairs you can admire a reproduction of the Conturines cave and the skeleton of the aforementioned bear. In the terrarium upstairs live different animals. This exhibition space also features a table with microscopes and a play area for children.
