SAT / E137 - Serrada - Forra del Lupo - Forte Dosso delle Somme

<p>This is one of the most beautiful and exciting themed trails dedicated to the Great War (1914-1918) in Trentino. The route retraces the trenches dug by the Austro-Hungarians.</p>

<p>The trail leads the hiker into a gorge - the Forra - between high rock walls, where the Austro-Hungarians dug trenches and deep shelters. Then the views, beautiful, over the upper Terragnolo valley, the Borcola pass and the imposing Pasubio mountain massif. The long trench - for which the name Forra del Lupo or Wolfsschlucht used during the war was retained - was rediscovered in 2014: a group of volunteers recognised the area in some paintings by Albin Egger and in the photos of an Austro-Hungarian officer, Ludwig Fasser, and began to organise the recovery. Today, after years of work, the route is certainly one of the most interesting on the Alpe Cimbra. At the end of the gorge, you reach the Caserme locality, where the buildings that housed the fort&#039;s garrison once stood; the trail continues in the first part inside a trench and then continues into the meadows below Fort Dosso delle Sommo (1670 m, in German Werk Serrada).</p>
