Colcerver (a toponym that refers to the presence of deer) is a tiny village in the Val di Zoldo, perched on the western slopes of Col Baion. It was permanently inhabited starting from the 16th century and represented one of the most populous villages in the Zoldo area. In 1886 it reached 293 inhabitants. At the beginning of the 20th century it was partly destroyed by a fire, but immediately rebuilt. In the following decades we witnessed its progressive abandonment, mainly due to its isolated position: still the only road to reach it is a military road dating back to the First World War. Since the mid-1980s it has been practically uninhabited. Today only a few keep it alive, some staying there during the summer months, some simply passing by to restore the decoration.

It consists of ancient houses built in local stone, wooden barns with imaginatively carved windows (tabià) and a lovely little church of Saints Ermagora and Fortunato, built between 1739 and 1741 on the initiative of the Panciera family. Walking through the narrow streets of the village is a dive into the past.

Worth seeing village from which generations of ice cream makers come. Photos from old times hang on the rustic, partly still inhabited houses and the view of the mountains is definitely worth seeing. Beautiful wood carvings are made there and if you have the time and luck, you can have a native tell you stories about the village and Italy.

Be careful: after rain, the narrow, steep paths that lead hikers to the village can be very muddy and slippery!
