Mount Zèvola (1,976 m) is the highest peak in the Tre Cime mountain chain, one of the mountain groups of the Little Dolomites (the Tre Croci chain, the Carega Group, the Sengio Alto chain, and the Pasubio Massif). The summit is actually divided in two by the deep Vajo dell'Acqua: Zevola Alta (1,976 m) and Zevola Bassa or Antecima (1,961 m), with the cross. From up here, you can enjoy a stunning 360° panorama: on one side, there's an excellent view of Carega and Pasubio, and on the other, the entire Lessinia plateau. The climb from Passo Zevola is short but steep.

From Monte Gramolòn (1,814 m), you have a breathtaking 360° view of the Piccole Dolomiti, the Sentiero dei Grandi Alberi trail below, and, on the opposite side, the Lessinia mountains! The climb from Passo Ristele (to the north) is short but steep, and breathtaking! From Passo della Scagina (to the south), it's even steeper and more technical, EE, with frequent switchbacks that ascend a deep gully: very evocative. On this side, there are also the Angelo Viali and Ferrari via ferratas. The summit, with its cross, touches a spectacular but exposed ridgeline over the precipice, so be careful and avoid leaning out. The toponym derives from the dialect verb 'sgramolare', meaning to break into lumps: therefore, 'Gramolon' means the mountain that crumbles, due to subsidence and scree!
