Tips

During the First World War, the high plateau on the border between Italy and Austria-Hungary was strategically important. The southern peak housed the Italian positions, and the northern peak housed the Austro-Hungarian positions, featuring trenches, bunkers, observation posts, and tunnels, some with narrow-gauge railway tracks for supply lines. Today, the plateau is an open-air museum, with a circular trail that allows visitors to explore the historic positions and experience the front lines and the extreme conditions faced by the soldiers.

The way along these positions is z.T. suspended and secured with wire ropes.
