ドレンキアのおすすめランニングルート

Near the Solarie Pass border crossing, at an altitude of 960 meters, stands this stele commemorating Riccardo Giusto. He is considered the first of approximately 650,000 Italian soldiers to die during the First World War.

A former border station, a classic example of modern architecture, having become obsolete due to the expansion of EU member states. On the Italian side, the border building is very well preserved and used by the Alpini (Italian mountain troops), while the Slovenian building is dilapidated. On the Italian side, there is also a monument to a distinguished Alpini soldier.

The entire Kolovrat Ridge was a theater of World War I. At 1,115 meters above sea level, the "Third Italian Defense Line" was established, which played a key role during the Battle of the Isonzo. Many of the paths and positions have been restored to their original condition, so that the trenches, positions, and fortifications now form a free, accessible open-air museum for everyone. The open-air museum also features a small hill serving as a viewing platform. From here, breathtaking views of the valley to Tolmin, the Soca River, and the surrounding mountains are offered.

Beautiful city - great for cross-country flying 🪂

Short tour up the mountain to the castle (currently under construction 24.7.2025)

There isn't much left of it

The walk around the two peaks is very rewarding. The views are magnificent in all directions.

The castle ruins show the preserved foundations of a castle that was fought over for centuries and has a strategic location. There are many benches from which you can admire the magnificent 360-degree panorama of the Soča Valley and the surrounding mountains on the edge of Triglav National Park.
