クロチェッタデルモンテッロのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

nature

Beautiful town along the Piave river where it is possible to take dirt tracks.

In 1917, the Bishop of Treviso promised the Madonna that, in case of victory, a church dedicated to her would be built on the top of Montello. Once the war ended, in the fall of 1923, the Collesel della Val dell'Acqua, the highest peak, was chosen for the construction of the church.

1917 was a terrible year for Italy, but above all for the Treviso region. The Italian soldiers at Caporetto were defeated by the Austro-Hungarian empire and proved incapable of slowing down their advance. In those days the bishop of Treviso Msgr. Andrea Giacinto Longhin (proclaimed blessed by John Paul II on 20 October 2002), seeing the grave danger looming over the entire Venetian plain, promised that if the Madonna had spared his diocese and Italy, arresting the enemies in the afterlife Piave, he would have erected a church dedicated to the Virgin on the top of Montello.

You can see it from Stradone del Bosco or from socket XX. A symbol of the industrial era that integrates well with the surrounding landscape.

An ideal segment for cycling close to Montello and away from traffic. In the northernmost sections, the view also extends towards the Treviso foothills, the Belluno peaks on clear days and above all towards the Valdobbiadene hills and the Asolo hills.

Place to fill up on water.

Chimney of the old brick kiln of Ciano del Montello. The furnace was built in the early 1900s, but was then closed because it was not competitive. In more recent years, lightning destroyed part of the main building which was later demolished. The more than 20 m high chimney remains.
