포자 최고의 등산 경로

Grappa peak with a 360° view

Starting from Malga Galmarara, at a good pace, you can reach the summit in about 2 hours and 10 minutes. The route presents no real difficulties, except for the last, rather steep section and a descent where you need to be careful to avoid slipping on the rocks. There are two summit books where you can leave a message.

The Bassano refuge is located on the top of Monte Grappa, at 1,750 meters above sea level, and is the only refreshment point near the Sacrario. The structure offers a panoramic view that ranges from the Veneto plain to the Dolomites and offers typical dishes of Venetian cuisine, such as pappardelle with wild boar and gnocchi with mountain cheeses. The refuge is a resting place for hikers and cyclists, and is open all year round, with closures on Mondays and Tuesdays during the winter. Monte Grappa is known for its historical and natural importance. An ideal destination for mountain and history lovers, it offers a 360-degree view and numerous trails, as well as being a point of reference for the memory of the world wars. The summit is accessible via trails, asphalt roads and cycle paths.

If you cycle up Monte Grappa, you should not miss a visit to the "Ossarium", a monumental memorial to the soldiers who died here in the senseless trench warfare during the First World War. The road up Monte Grappa ends at a large car park at Rifugio Bassano. From here, it is only a long flight of stairs to the Ossarium and then you can admire the extensive Ossarium and enjoy the overwhelming view. On my first visit, I pushed my racing bike up the stairs because I didn't have a lock with me. On my second visit with my friend, we locked the bikes in the car park and climbed up.

A truly suggestive place that produces thoughts, it is worth the climb both on asphalt and on the path

The route from Malga Galmarara is feasible. Some points are more difficult and you need to be careful, but it is a very pleasant excursion, especially in good weather. Unfortunately, when I reached the top, I found fog so I was unable to photograph the Valsugana village, but it was a difficult and sweaty experience. 👍

Super refuge where you can eat and drink something after trekking

Cycling in Val delle Mure is a pleasant experience, among splendid beech forests interspersed with pastures and mountain huts. With a little attention you can see rocks dotted with tunnels, grassy traces of trenches and walkways, countless conical depressions caused by the explosions of the First World War. This was one of the main stretches of immediate rear, devastated by bombs and marked by walkways and fields of barbed wire: there were the first war cemeteries, the small first aid posts, the reinforcement troops awaiting the order to counterattack towards the surrounding peaks. The serene silence of today barely compensates for the echoes of the screams and rumbles of that time.
