Small rock pillar (with a short ferraratina to get to the top) overlooking a First World War stronghold carved into the same rock

Sass de la Poja ('Sasso della Buzzard', the bird of prey, in Venetian dialect) is a large boulder that stands alone on the south-eastern side of Summano.

During the Great War, the Italian army dug an observatory there to monitor the Vicenza Plain. Further down, another rock strut with another observatory. However, the entire short path is fortified with short trenches and reinforcement walls, a couple of cave shelters and walkways: a suggestive and interesting passage through the woods.
