    Hiking

    Bocca del Lovo (810 m) was an Italian machine gun emplacement during the Great War, strategically positioned for controlling the Astico Valley. Created by excavating a natural rock spur, it was part of the fortified line of Mount Summano, itself a section of the long line of maximum resistance that protected access to the Po Valley against a possible Austro-Hungarian invasion.

    It offers a wide and splendid panorama of the Astico Valley, the Velo amphitheater, the Arsiero basin, Cimone di Tonezza, and Cengio; looking up to the left, a unique view of the majestic, sharp Creste del Summano.
