On the slopes of Monte Zugna, south of Rovereto, along a steep slope of about two hundred metres near the Lavini di Marco, hundreds of footprints of carnivorous and herbivorous dinosaurs of different shapes and sizes are imprinted. The rocky outcrops are about 200 million years old (early Jurassic) and represent what remains, in the fossil state, of a large tidal carbonate plain in many ways similar to what can be observed today on the coasts of the Persian Gulf.
