Tour of the Nosellari Trenches
<p>Thematic route, witness to the First World War (1914-1918), which wrote dramatic pages of history on these heights from May 1915 onwards. Amidst trenches and deep shelters dug into the rock, the route retraces what was the first Austro-Hungarian line on the Alpe Cimbra, overlooking the Kingdom of Italy, i.e. the Astico valley below.</p>
<p>It is an easy route that combines historical interest with nature and landscape interest. Its peculiarity is that it takes us to unusual places such as the 'stoi', deep shelters dug into the rock, then to an underground tunnel that leads to a panoramic trench dug into the rock, and finally to the Lunt crevasse, a deep and evocative cleft that cuts through the steep slope sloping down into the Astico valley below. It is suitable for families with children (+ 6 years).</p>
