Overview
22 january 2006From Mount Pazul to Alpe Pozze and Col Santo: the heart of Pasubio
PASUBIO PANORAMIC VIEW
Geographical Classification: Eastern Alps
The Pasubio massif
is 160kmq wide and it is situated between Folgaria and Lavarone tableland and the Carega group,
in the south eastern borders of Trentino and Veneto region.
It is famous because it was the scenario of Great War: in fact this massif was a strategic position from 1916 the end of the war. The Pasubio is crossed by trails and roads build around 1917 by Italy during the sad war with Austria ( the famous " Strada delle gallerie" or Road of Tunnels ...52 galleries.)
Today you can walk along the famous "Path of Peace" along this Road of Tunnels to the top of M.Pasubio and the Italian and Austro-Hungarian peaks, the Lancia Refuge and crossing the European path E5.
From its summit (northern side) there is a remarkable and great view: from the Baldo range to thePiccole Dolomiti group and the Padana plain,
from the tableland of Folgaria and Lavarone to the Adige Valley and Dolomiti di Brenta.
Pasubio is bordered by four Valleys:
The morphology of this side is dolomitic with steep rocky walls and pinnacles of the higher summits: Pasubio,Roite,Soglio dell'Incudine.
It is characterized by an impressive rocky front : from Punta delle Lucche to Sogli Bianchi.
The Pasubio massif is crossed by two important roads that go along the Pian delle Fugazze Pass in Vallarsa Valley and the Borcola Pass in the Terragnolo Valley. The most important road is in Vallarsa (Via Regia)
