Contrà Mondonovo

Highlight • Settlement

Mondonovo is a beautiful and typical district that has maintained its original and authentic appearance, at least in its core, escaping the questionable modern restorations that characterize many other hamlets: dry stone walls, wooden balustrades and stairs, rock tools hanging on the walls, a sundial, votive capitals, ... a dive into the past in an isolated and bucolic landscape, lapped by a lively stream.
The 4-storey house in the heart of the village is delightful and picturesque, surrounded by stairs and balconies.

Camonda Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The Camonda pass can be reached by going up on the right (if coming from Vicenza) just before Recoaro (signs for Rovegiana). The climb is on asphalt up to the capital, then you can follow some paths, the one you meet in front of you, comes out at Manfron di Sopra and from there you go down to Torrebelvicino and then Schio.

Monte Civillina — summit and World War I fortifications

Highlight • Summit

The summit of Civillina is wide, grassy and very panoramic with a wide view of the Vicenza and Trentino Prealps, today unfortunately covered by clouds and mist. There are also numerous trenches and other very well preserved or recovered war artefacts. Finally, congratulations for the comprehensive explanations posted on numerous information panels along the entire itinerary.
