루고 디 비첸차‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪6‬개의 산길

Col d'Asiago offers a beautiful and privileged panoramic point on the underlying Canale del Brenta, or the narrow and deep terminal part of Valsugana. But the view extends over the Asiago Plateau and the entire skyline of mountains that border it to the north, the Grappa Massif to the east and the mouth of Val Brenta. In the distance, the Piccole Dolomiti, the Pale di San Martino and the Vette Feltrine. Precisely because of its strategic position, during the First World War it was a strongly armed Italian defensive bastion and decisive in various phases of the conflict. The peak is also known locally by the ancient and dialect toponym 'Col del S-ciavo', dating back to the time of the Serenissima: on the slopes of the hill in fact the 'schiavoni' (i.e. the non-Latin inhabitants of the dominions of Dalmatia and the Venetian hinterland) cut wood for the naval fleet; the trunks (especially beech trees) were lowered down the valley through the famous and nearby Calà del Sasso; they were then loaded onto rafts that went down the entire Brenta, until they reached the lagoon and the Arsenale of Venice. A large concrete cistern dominates the summit, collecting the water pumped from the Oliero Caves, 1000m further downstream, and distributing it to the Plateau.

Panoramic view, breathtaking

Asiago

At times the road surface is a bit ruined, but in any case the climb is beautiful and the road is less wide and has more beautiful vegetation than the previous stretch which comes from Lusiana

Bocchetta Paù (1,286 m) is a small pass between Monte Paù and Cima Fàvaro, featuring a bucolic pasture with a grazing pond surrounded by woods. From the rocky promontory on the edge of the plateau, you can enjoy a spectacular and expansive view of the Veneto plain, the Astico Valley, and the Piccole Dolomiti (with neighboring Summano in the foreground). Interesting fact: the metal shrine on the rock is nicknamed the "Madonnina dei Sauerkraut" (Little Madonna of the Sauerkraut), because it was commissioned as a votive offering after a narrow escape by Mr. Zuccato, owner of the well-known Vicenza-based sauerkraut company of the same name!

Col d'Astiago is located in the south-eastern sector of the Asiago plateau. Wide panorama of the Brenta and towards Monte Grappa. Here is the pumping station of the aqueduct that brings water from the Oliero caves to the plateau.

Near Monte Cavalletto there is one of the five English cemeteries present in the territory of the Asiago plateau, in which more than a thousand fallen are buried.

Lovely place with stunning views. Obligatory stop making the tour of the malghe. 12 km. surrounded by greenery with a panoramic stretch towards the plain. Asiago plateau area.
