Folgaria
This is a particularly tough ascent, right from the very first stretch of hairpin bends which lead from Calliano, through numerous villages, up to the plateau. The state road no. 350 was built at the end of the XIX century to connect the Valle dell’Adige with Lavarone and the province of Vicenza. The going gets particularly tough on the last steep stretch up to the town of Folgaria.

Turn-by-turn directions
Boundless is the word which most often comes to mind when describing a high plateau: a word which in this case fits the bill perfectly since the plateau stretches from Folgaria with its many villages, as far as Lavarone and Luserna. The area is dotted with numerous forts which saw action during the Great War, and is also intersected by the splendid “Path of Peace” (a unique hiking route along the old war front between Italy and Austria – the only of its kind in Europe). The area is also a paradise for mountain bikers and features the magnificent “100 km dei Forti” Itinerary.
