롱가어‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪19‬개의 천연기념물

Il Sasso di Lumignano는 방언으로 'Il Sèngio'라고도 불리며, 태초에 위쪽 암벽에서 떨어진 거대한 바위입니다! 높이는 16미터, 평균 둘레는 60미터입니다. Contrà Molini의 집들 사이에 놓여 있으며, 좁은 밑면 때문에 영원히 균형을 잡고 있는 것처럼 보입니다. 1905년 5월 22일, 풍부하고 지속적인 비로 인해 약 30도 천천히 회전하여 현관을 파괴하고 도로를 막았다고 전해집니다. 이것이 Sasso가 움직여 영구적으로 자리 잡은 마지막이자 유일하게 기록된 경우였습니다. 초보자에게도 적합한 여러 루트가 있는 암벽 등반 장소로도 사용됩니다.

A suggestive ledge that flanks a series of covoli, natural caves that open along the karst rock face, partially hidden by vegetation. Among these, the Covolo delle Tette stands out, so called for the rounded stalactites that decorate its vault (speleologically called, precisely, 'mammal concretions'). In the area, as in all the Berici Hills, there are numerous and particular similar karst phenomena (ledges, cliffs, roofs and caves), the result of differentiated erosion between rocks of different compactness because they were formed in different geological eras; they were used as shelter and dwelling since prehistoric times. P.S.: the 'cèngia' is a horizontal passage that 'cuts' a vertical wall; the 'còvolo' (Venetian dialect) is a ravine in the rock.

The Grotta di San Bernardino is a small and fascinating medieval hermitage, nestled at the base of a ten-meter-high limestone pinnacle (the only rock tower in the entire Berici Hills). The building's façade encloses a karst cavity about thirty meters long and ten meters wide. An evocative and mysterious setting. According to tradition, the name derives from the shelter it provided to Saint Bernardino of Siena, who preached in these areas in the 15th century. In the early 16th century, this cave, like others in the Berici Hills, was adapted as a temporary refuge for the local populations, while the Venetian plain was subjected to enemy raids. The oldest prehistoric remains in the Vicenza area (tools and animal bones dating back 200,000 years) were found inside the cave: it was likely used by Neanderthals as a hunting base. Interesting fact: the abundance of animal bones was the main cause of soil removal and the resulting significant impoverishment of San Bernardino's paleontological heritage. In fact, in 1890, the Camerini family, owners of the site, had the rich phosphate material excavated from the cave. It was transported downstream by cableway and used as fertilizer for the fields! The cave is occasionally open to the public, with guided tours organized by the Mossano Tourist Board (Pro Loco), which you can contact for details. http://www.tuttoberici.it/arte/S-Bernardino-Grotta-Mossano.htm https://www.archeoveneto.it/portale/wp-content/filemaker/stampa_scheda_estesa.php?recid=189

Natural caves near the church of San Donato. Beautiful view of the plain and the Euganei.

Reachable by following path 72 starting from Villaga Fantastic view of the plain, as well as a place of historical interest

The covoli di San Donato are wonderful, panoramic. It is a place where an ancient church once stood close to the covoli; later it became a female Benedictine monastery. Now stands a church dating back to the nineteenth century. The walls also have some climbing routes.

Panoramic place on the valley below and on the Euganean hills on the bottom !!! The path to arrive, visit and return to Mossano is wonderful
