Col Fenilon is a green, rounded hill rising among the Colli Alti, offering a splendid 360° panorama, even better than the more famous (and lower) Col Moschin: the view extends over the plain, Bassano and the Brenta Valley, the Asiago Plateau, the Lagorai, Mount Grappa, and, on the horizon, the Dolomites. During the First World War, the Colli Alti del Grappa (including Col Fenilon and Col Moschin) were a crucial and extreme point of Italian resistance defending the plain. In June 1918, they were conquered by the Austro-Hungarians, and later retaken by the Italians in a lightning-fast and legendary action. The name derives from "buon fieno" (good hay), due to the excellent mountain pastures it has provided for centuries.

The large cross of Col del Fenilon (1327 m) is in memory of the fallen and heroic deeds that characterized these places during the First World War. From here the view is truly magnificent.

The little road that goes up with the mountains in the background is a wonderful image. In any case, following it you will arrive at the miet tavern, instead of taking the asphalt road.
