The Sentiero delle Meatte is one of the most spectacular and frequented hiking routes in the Grappa Massif, located on the Treviso side above the town of San Liberale. This path, which winds at an altitude of about 1,300-1,500 meters, is a masterpiece of military engineering from the Great War, entirely carved into the rock to allow the movement of troops and supplies at high altitude. Characterized by a moderate slope and a series of tunnels and aerial passages, the trail offers dizzying views ranging from the Venetian plain to the peaks of the Dolomites. Walking along the Meatte means crossing an open-air museum, where the wild beauty of the grassy ridges blends with the historical memory of the fortifications, barracks, and trenches still visible along the route.

One of the few via ferratas in the Brenta Massif. This C/D climb runs along a ridge on the southeast flank of Monte Grappa and runs above a tunnel on the SP141. An exit is also available there.

Beautiful via ferrata of medium difficulty, lasting about two hours and with a difference in altitude of about 250 m. It has a long and steep approach path that can exhaust your energy a bit for the via ferrata itself. The via ferrata ends with a beautiful bridge suspended between two rock pillars. For the descent I recommend taking the beautiful path 152 delle Meatte and then 151, but there are also other options, including the via ferrata Guzzella downhill for those who still have strength. Finally, be careful that the exposure is south so always under the sun's rays: hence the name 'Sass Brusai'.

The question is: why is this place worth visiting? The answer is only one: because the landscape is wonderful, because there is a spectacular view, because it is a site of historical importance, because in this place emotions and thoughts are unleashed. Getting there by the route I took is not difficult or dangerous and with the snow it is a spectacle. Good legs and in a few hours you can get there.

Beautiful and exciting, the suspension bridge is the icing on the cake of the Sass Brusai via ferrata.
