Tramigna River Resurgences in Cazzano di Tramigna

The Strada dei Maronari winds along easy, wide forest roads, though there are some breath-taking climbs. It passes through beautiful woods, dominated by numerous centuries-old trees, each identified by its nickname and year of birth. Particularly fascinating is the majestic and ancient Maronaro Odino, estimated to date back to 1543 AD (!!!), officially registered in the list of Monumental Trees of Italy.

Monte Nero, above Montecchio Maggiore, is actually a hill: despite its modest size, it is quite unique in terms of its geology, morphology, and botanical rarities! Thirty million years ago, Monte Nero was a volcanic island emerging from the waters. This gave rise to the current peak, which, with its bare, arid, and dark basalt (hence the name "Nero"), stands out clearly from the surrounding limestone hills. It is a unique (micro)environment: you walk on the primitive, solidified lava flow; you encounter rare plants, including exotic and Mediterranean ones, which are, to say the least, unusual to find in these places. A short educational trail (also suitable for children) starts from the Church of San Pietro and illustrates the peculiarities of Monte Nero in six stages/panels. https://www.prolocoaltemontecchio.it/cosa-vedere/percorsi/naturalistici/

To admire this curious phenomenon, a detour from the main road is necessary. Once you reach the place, just look out into the well (with a diameter of about 50 cm) from which what is sometimes called "dragon's breath" seems to emerge from. It is nothing more than a karst cavity (characteristic of the Faedo-Casaron plateau) from which fresh air comes out (which varies between 7 and 13 degrees). Especially in the summer period, the typical rustle of the exchange of hot and cold air masses at the mouth of the cave is clearly audible. The cavity, commonly called "Buso del Lucio", was discovered by the Maladense speleologist Lucio Zanini. The valley that you travel along following the Campipiani-Faedo path is called “Valle dei Vischi”. The origin of this name is not known but it probably refers to the sound effects (breathing, hissing, moaning) that the blowing caves produce in particular climatic conditions.

Resurgences and pools that create this basin of crystal clear water

In the photo the resurgence of the Tramigna river (from which the town takes its name) also called "Lago della Mora", located behind the Trattoria La Mora, where you can stop for a coffee or a quick lunch. Next to the resurgence there is also a fountain for refuelling.
