Just outside the town of Fumane, on the top of a hill, stands the small sanctuary of the Madonna de la Salette, built in 1864 as a sign of gratitude by the people of Fumane in response to a devastating disease that had affected their lives. The construction of the sanctuary was inspired by a preacher friar who told them about the apparition of the Madonna in France and the invitation to build a sacred place in her honor.

Mountain biking

Not too challenging route and with little traffic, the climb from Salette is almost entirely in the shade
