The famous curve of Cà Tasson represents the dividing line between the Italian and Austrian trenches during the First World War. Today, two rocky spurs testify to the proximity between the two outposts, which in the long run had caused a certain degree of tranquility (so much so that the soldiers of the two factions chatted among themselves, exchanging tobacco and bread). Here, in May 1918, the action of the "arditi" took place which earned Captain Ettore Viola the gold medal for military valor.

In an intertwining of nature, art and history there is also the Garden of Memory, an installation by the artist Maria Luisa Giacomin: two trunks crashed by the Vaia storm wrapped in a crown of thorns made with war objects found on the spot (barbed wire, mess tins , metal sheets ...) and refined with 99 ceramic poppy flowers. It is only one of the works that characterizes the thematic path called Bosco degli Eroi, born in 2014 from the desire to remember the many lives broken on the battlefield.
