Historical

The Fort Campolongo constituted with the Verena Fort and the Fort Corbin,the most direct response to the line of Austro-Hungarian forts. It was one of the most modern buildings carried out by the Italian Military Genius. In July 1915 it was badly damaged,and then almost completely destroyed on May 15, 1916 by the blows that began theSpring Offensive.

Environmental

The walk winds along theformer military road of service to the fort; surrounded by spruce forests rich in undergrowth. Arriving in the vicinity of the fort the vegetation changes abruptly so that there are multiple thermophilic species. The visit to the S-ciason well introduces to the karsts of the Plateau where many chasms become "traps" for snow that is preserved all year round.
