Hiking
Italian World War I tunnel dug into the southern slope of Mount Cimone, below the summit. With a water tank, original engraved plaque, and observation post overlooking the Cengio and the Astico Valley below.
From the dizzying vertical rock face overlooking the tunnel, hidden from enemy view and considered insurmountable, the Alpine troops launched a daring attack, using ropes and ladders, to retake Mount Cimone, which after the Strafexpedition was firmly in Austro-Hungarian hands.

The climb to Mount Cimone is full of galleries from the first war, certainly worth visiting.
