Col Moschin is a bare, green, and rounded hill offering a splendid view of the Brenta Valley below, the Asiago Plateau opposite, Mount Grappa, the Lagorai Mountains, and all the way to the Dolomites! During the First World War, on June 15, 1918, Col Moschin was the scene of a brilliant and lightning-fast assault by the Arditi of the 9th Assault Regiment, who in just 10 minutes retook the peak from Austro-Hungarian hands, effectively halting the imperial advance toward the plain. For their valor and heroism, the current 9th Col Moschin Parachute Assault Regiment, an elite corps of Italian special forces, is named after them. The hill is still marked by the scars of trenches and shell holes. Here, as at other crucial points of the conflict scattered across the Alpine foothills, an authentic column from ancient Rome was erected after the First World War, donated by the capital as a lasting reminder of the Austro-Hungarian army's deepest penetration (and thus of Italy's extreme and heroic resistance).

The Basilica of Santa Maria di Monte Berico is an important Roman Catholic pilgrimage church located on the hill of Monte Berico. Its origins date back to two apparitions of the Virgin Mary, which are said to have appeared to the peasant woman Vincenza Pasini in 1426 and 1428 during a plague epidemic. Mary promised to spare the town if a church were built there, which the population immediately did. The original Gothic church was completed in just three months. The current basilica was built between 1688 and 1703 according to plans by Carlo Borella in the Baroque style, with the Gothic structure incorporated into the new building. The façade was redesigned in the Neo-Gothic style in 1860. Particularly striking are the three symmetrical Baroque façades with 42 figures of saints and three bas-reliefs by Orazio Marinali, as well as the bell tower by Antonio Piovene, erected in 1825. Access from the city is via a 700-meter-long staircase with 150 arches, symbolizing the 15 mysteries of the Rosary and 150 Hail Marys. The basilica is an important center of Marian devotion, attracting numerous pilgrims, and was elevated to a minor basilica by Pope Pius X in 1904.

Trail in the Pian Castello area

Quiet walk with picnic stops

Small lake completely surrounded by Monte Berici; nesting place for many water birds but due to its location and good walking path (3.5 km) around the lake it is busy on weekends and holidays.
