Guided excursions
Guided tour-"MONTE CENGIO-caduta...il Salto del grenadier" in the places of the great war with Joonie GUIDES
HISTORICAL EXCURSION-special STRAFEXPEDITION in the same places 100 years later.
This tour is ideal for those who want to combine an undemanding with a visit to a place of high historical value, located in a location from which you can admire one of the most beautiful landscapes of the entire plateau.
The hike is considered easy hiking, walking even by non-experts.
The trail runs along the Southwest side of the mountain, dug for long stretches in the live rock and in some places using galleries.
The trail runs for about 4 km, allowing you to arrive at an altitude of 1347 m of the Summit but the difference of 150 meters seems not to be felt, as the many points of historical interest (trenches, tunnels, gun emplacements, in addition to the hugely popular Saut des grenadiers) allow for pleasant breaks and in the case of warm days in the Gallery allow you to cool off.
The view on the end of the Valley of Astico and behind plain views all the way takes your breath away.
It is necessary to have a flashlight given the numerous steps inside tunnels.
