The so-called "road of the Germans" is an interesting and unknown state-owned route which is located on the extreme rural outskirts of Camino, a hamlet of Oderzo (TV). It takes its name from the fact that, during the Austrian invasion of 1917-18, it was traveled by troops of the invading army to reach the Pustoch area, or the uncultivated lands on the border between Camino and Mansuè, near the so-called Fossa dei Negàdi , so called in memory of a tragic event whose memory has been lost. The remains of grenades found here show how military exercises were carried out in these areas.
What remains today is a beautiful road lined with moats and native plants: poplars, oaks, maples, elms, hazelnuts, alders, elders and many other tree varieties typical of that great scrub that covered the area in ancient times and which is now limited to the Bosco di Basalghelle. Finding this road is not easy, also because it is not signposted at all. It can be reached by completely following the dirt road that begins in the middle of Via Boarie di Camino, between the Cardin (I vini delle Baite) and Taffarel wineries. After about 400 meters, the dirt road ends in front of an isolated and rather unusual house. The road of the Germans begins immediately on the right, turning left 45 ° after about 200 meters and continuing in a north-easterly direction along the municipal border between Oderzo and Mansuè. The road ends in via Villalunga di Mansuè, near a capital. A plausible but historically unsupported hypothesis is that this dirt road represents what remains of the medieval road that connected Camino to Portobuffolè. Certainly the area has been inhabited for millennia: Paleovenetian and Roman wall structures and pottery have come to light here, as well as the so-called Ax of the Baite, one of the oldest pieces exhibited in the civic museum of Oderzo (IX-VII century BC). The road is partially protected by the 2007 Territorial Plan of the Municipality of Oderzo.
a nice stretch in Gravel between Oderzo and gorgo to cut main roads and find yourself for a moment away from the noise of the engines ... small but pleasant stretch
