TWO DAY TREK IN KOBARID
Mount Matajur thanks to the characteristic conical shape can be easily identified by much of the Friuli plain. The hike to the little slope the sides of the mountain, has no particular difficulty. From 1641 m of its Summit you can see a panorama that sweeps to 360° degrees from the Carso, to Istria, the lagoon of Grado and the peaks of the Canin, Triglav, mount Mangart, Nero and the Dolomites. In clear days is visible Venice.
The top of the mountain has been, since ancient times, land border between Italy and Austria, first with, then with Yugoslavia and, today, with the Republic of Slovenia.
The Hill of Matajur, during World War I, it was part of the Italian second army made from the last line of Defense for protecting the Friulian plain in case of breakage of fighters in advanced positions. Mount defended by Brigade Salerno went down in history on 24 October 1917 when, during the battle of Caporetto, Lieutenant Rommel, head of six German companies; After a long exhausting marches over 50 hours of bombing, captured the top.
From Matajur, Rommel continued, through Longarone, its fast advanced up the river Piave.
Also interesting is the natural part of our trek in that in the mountainous area of Matajur grow about 619 vascular plant species; and thanks to this its slopes have a great interest to scholars of the flora of the Alps in Italy.
