The 16 Most Amazing Peaks around Cavasso Nuovo

The summit of Mount Valinis, 1,102 meters, is easily accessible by hiking from all sides. It's easy to reach the paragliding launch point by e-bike. From there to the summit, the ascent and descent by e-bike is quite technical.

Monte Valinis, an international launch and takeoff point for hang gliders and paragliders.

Mount Jôuf is a peak in the Carnic Prealps that rises behind the city of Maniago. This name, quite common in the mountain environment, literally translates to "yoke" (long and rounded mountain summit). The name appears for the first time in 1286, in the Municipal Archives of Maniago, and today it is written in various ways including: Iouf, Jouf, Jôf, Iof and Jof. Its main peak, an enchanting grassy clearing at 1,224 m, in a panoramic position on the Friulian plain, is recognizable by a modest flag with a rudimentary bench. In reality there is also a lower peak, traditionally recognized, located at 1,203 m and reachable from the saddle below. Here there is a large cross with a summit book. Nearby there is a meteorological station that reduces the view.

The best time to climb this peak is Spring and Autumn. In Winter with proper equipment.

For those who climb Mount Jouf from Maniago, they arrive at the top, where there is a large cross. Many think that the top is that one, but for the real top (about thirty meters higher), it is necessary to continue along the crest, passing the repeaters, and descending to the saddle, go back up to the real top positioned along the crest (bench and flag).

Beautiful balcony overlooking the Friulian plain, on clear and clear days, on Mount Fara, (especially in winter), the view ranges from the Italo-Slovenian Prealps, to the Adriatic Sea, from the Venice lagoon to the Euganean Hills.

Mount Valinis is a peak in the Carnic Prealps which is part of the large karst plateau of Mount Ciaurlec, from which it juts out towards the west with its elongated shape. Unlike this, however, it has a flat peak, free of vegetation and very panoramic. From here the view extends 360° over all the Friulian Prealps, with greater opening towards the peaks of Val Tramontina, towards Cuar and towards Raut. On its summit stands the "Alpini Cross", placed on 9 June 2009 by the Valmeduna Alpini Group to remember all the members who have "moved forward". Valinis can be reached from the hamlet of Sottomonte via the CAI 819 path or via the road that goes up to the refuge of the same name. Mount Valinis, a true balcony overlooking the Friulian plain, is a meeting place for hang gliding and paragliding enthusiasts thanks to its splendid position, extremely open and easily accessible.

I found this tour very tiring. The ascent to the mountain is exclusively via steep, stony, narrow paths. There is almost no section that offers a little relaxation. The views are stunning and when there are many paragliders on the mountain the effort is well worth it. The descent is then via very narrow trails only two feet wide. Unfortunately we got lost in the last two kilometers. The hiking trail didn't fit anymore. There were no trail markers and lumberjacks have carved a wide path into the forest that ends in nowhere. Unfortunately, we then had to walk a huge detour to the starting point.
