It was built using the strong pre-existing Agordino and Cadore and building, with the decisive contribution of the local population, hundreds of galleries and hundreds of kilometres of trenches. All these works were interconnected by an efficient network of roads, mule tracks and paths, mostly passable, that are part of the skeleton now hiking Dolomites.
