칼세라니카 알 라고‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪13‬개의 산길

The Vezzena Pass, on the Costo road, connects the Asiago plateau with Lavarone. The road to Luserna also starts here.

Pass height reached at 1402 m via the Strada del Menador.

Very nice climb with little traffic, done on a Sunday afternoon in October and crossed paths with 10 cars at most

Arriving at Vezzena from the Menador after so much effort you can admire the beautiful valley of the 7 municipalities!!

The pass connects the Adige valley with the upper Valsugana and there are several itineraries in the area

It can be tackled from Levico going towards Lochere. Start of climb which, at the first bends, rises well over double figures. Then, after the crossroads, it regularly bites just under 10%: a segment mainly in a straight line, with a couple of hairpin bends, which when the sun beats down can get scorching hot. After a bend to the left, just above 800 metres, here is the first tunnel dug into the rock: an image that immerses us in the historical dimension of this climb. It is about twenty meters long, less than three meters wide (the Menador is in fact forbidden to vehicles wider than two and a half metres). Here the slope allows you to breathe for a moment, shortly after there is the second tunnel, similar to the first and then you arrive at the hardest segment of all: from kilometer six, three thousand meters of hard sweating, divided into three parts of similar length. At 10% and above the first, constantly at 12% the second and finally always above 9% the third, before reaching Monterovere (altitude 1,261).

Great path with great views

The hike begins at Passo Venezza
