Guided excursion in the places of the Great War with the guides plateau of Asiago-"Monte Cengio: to the peak on the Val D'astico"

REVIEW THE GREAT STORY IN HIGHLAND

This excursion is ideal for those who want to combine a difficult path with a visit to a place of high historical value, located in a position from which one can admire the most beautiful landscapes of the entire plateau.

The excursion is considered easy, walking even by non-experienced hikers.

The trail develops along the southwest side of the mountainous massif, dug for long stretches in the living rock and in some places using tunnels, for about 4 km, allowing you to reach the altitude 1347 of the summit.

The difference in altitude of 150 meters seems not to be felt, as the many points of historical interest (trenches, galleries, artillery posts, in addition to the famous leap of Grenadiers) allow pleasant stops and in case of Hot days the passages in the gallery allow to refresh themselves.

The view on the final part of the Valle Dell'astico and on the back plain of which you can enjoy all the way takes your breath away.
