Hiking
Directly over the Tilliacher yoke runs the Austrian-Italian border. Only a few meters away from the yoke, you will also find well-preserved attachment positions from the First World War, when the yoke was fiercely fought over.

Hiking
The Tilliacher Joch was already an important crossing point in 1822, where a lively timber trade took place between the Italians and the people of Obertilliach. The timber was used at the time for fortifying Venice, for building houses and bridges, as well as for gondolas and ships. In 1915, the Tilliacher Joch was occupied by the Lesachtal Standschützen Company and the Porzescharte opposite was occupied by the Italians. The Carnic High Route has made the two crossings more important again in modern times.
