    Tips

    February 9, 2023

    Spectacular up-and-down trail along the jagged ridge that connects Colletto di Velo to the summit of Summano, between the Vicenza Plain and the Astico Valley, alternating wooded sections with others with breathtaking views of the valley below: the best views appear by making a few small detours and climbing up some rock outcrops, where you must pay particular attention, because they are overhanging!

    About halfway along the route, marked, you can choose between the lower variant, easier through the woods, and the higher variant, more challenging but recommended: after a while, however, they join together, both taking you to the summit; one idea is to do the higher one on the way out and the lower one on the way back. Along the higher variant, a further detour leads to an exposed pinnacle with a cross, which you climb via a route equipped with a chain (only for very expert hikers).

    The final stretch is quite steep, but crosses a very suggestive wood with a trench and tunnel from the First World War.

    For the return, you can choose the long (a bit monotonous) asphalt road below.
