Monte Cengio Hiking Trip

Join ODR for our first hike of the season! As the weather grows warmer we will visit many historic places by foot. Monte Cengio and Forte Corbin have quite the history. This is the site of a famous battle in World War I, called the Strafexpedition or Spring Offensive, which took place in May and June of 1916. The hike will take about 5/6 hours, with WWI monuments along the way. This hike is a wonderful opportunity for history buffs and photographers.

After hiking the sencic and rocky cliffside trails of Monte Cengio, we will explore the WWI fort of Forte Corbin. Built to be a model fortress, the Corbin is the largest and most articulated fort of the Asiago Plateau and is a real open-air museum that offers a breathtaking view of the valley and the surrounding mountains. Thanks to the restoration and maintenance work carried out constantly by the owners, the Corbin Fort can be fully visited and inside it houses a museum where war artifacts, vintage photographs and historical documents are exhibited.

A note on weather:

ODR will review the conditions ahead of time to ensure they are appropriate for the hike. We will not cancel for rain unless it is deemed unsafe for hiking. If it is found that the conditions are not suitable, ODR will notify you and inform you about refund information.
