The ancient Molinetto della
Croda is located between Rolle and Refrontolo in the Lierza valley.
The foundations of the original building rest on the bare rock of the mountain, which is why it is called “croda” (rock).

The small museum takes you back in time. You can see how people used to live and watch how the ‘white pearl’, corn flour for white polenta, is ground with a stone mill. You can taste Passito di Refrontolo (red Passito is made with Marzemino grapes).

The “Strada dei Cento Giorni” (Road of a Hundred Days) was built in 100 days during World War I.

Once traveled by pilgrims, soldiers, and merchants, the road is a spectacular passway to the Dolomites. It is often used for 'transhumanza', the cattle drive, as well as by cyclists in the Giro d'Italia. It is a short but intense climb with 18 hairpin bends and 5 very narrow tunnels.

At the top of the San Boldo Pass, you will find Osteria La Muda, the oldest tavern in the Veneto region. It would be difficult to find a more authentic tavern.

Book in advance!

Il Passo San Boldo

The Abbey of Santa Maria di Sanavalle is one of the most important examples of Cistercian architecture.

Follina is home to many crafts, including wool processing. It was the monks of the Abbey who brought this art to the area and developed the activity of “follatura” (fulling), from which the town derives its name, favored by the abundance of pastures (extending as far as Alpago) and several waterways. The extent to which wool processing was rooted in Follina is indicated by some elegant buildings in the historic center. At the foot of the Abbey stands Palazzo Barberis, which from 1666 onwards combined the production of humble woolen cloth with that of more refined fabrics.

Cison Castle (also known as Castelbrando) rises on the slopes of Mount Castello, overlooking the villages of Valmareno and Cison (the latter being famous for its open-air markets, L'Artigianato Vivo in August and Stelle a Natale in early December).

Guided tours of the castle are a journey through two thousand years of history: Roman finds, from the Renaissance to the elegant 18th century.

You can also just treat yourself to a royal dinner under the medieval walls of the castle or a snack at high altitude in the pizzeria ‘La Fucina’.

At the Lakes & at Tarzo

A walk of about 90 minutes will take you around two ancient glacial lakes, Lake Santa Maria and Lake Lago. Their precious heritage of floral, arboreal, and faunal biodiversity thrives in the suggestive wetlands ecosystem.

The most interesting area is ‘Va dee femene’, meaning ‘women's passage’ (through the reeds), because this is where the washerwomen used to gather, as well as being a summer meeting place for the villagers.

The Livelet Educational Archaeological Park is an open-air museum where you can discover daily life in the pile-dwelling sites of the Alpine Arc between the Neolithic and Bronze Ages.

This small prehistoric world will show you tools, crafts, curious materials, and faithful reconstructions of objects from the past, transforming everything into a natural science laboratory.

In the hamlets of Fratta and Colmaggiore, you can follow a fascinating trail of art and history. A 45-minute walk takes you past the famous murals decorating the walls of the houses, dedicated to emigration, popular culture, and local traditions.

At the beginning of August, during the Festa dell'Emigrante (Emigrant Festival), you will also find the Cortili dell'Arte (Courtyards of Art), an event that attracts painters, sculptors, photographers, cartoonists, art enthusiasts, and newcomers to the art world every year.

La via dei Murales

In Tarzo, there is a steep staircase that leads to another dimension: the “Giardino museo bonsai della serenità” (Bonsai Museum Garden of Serenity), with a thousand specimens.

A magical world, conceived and built by Armando Dal Col, one of the founding fathers of bonsai art in Italy. The temple of bonsai history in Italy is open to visitors every day.

In this three-storey stone and brick farmhouse, built in the late 19th century, you could once help yourself to bread, salami and wine, leaving your payment without needing to be served by an innkeeper.

Today, the service is conveniently automated and modernised, but you can still make use of the tables and seating areas located along this scenic path leading to Cima Cartizze.

Osteria senz'oste

From the ancient roccolo, once a bird-hunting post, to the modern one, this Italian-style garden has been transformed into a veritable natural living room from which to follow the birds’ migratory routes.

The garden is surrounded by oaks and chestnut trees, as well as fruit trees and plants.

In the 1970s, thanks to the collaboration of the Fabris family of the Da Ponte distillery, the roccolo, consisting of a ‘web’ of white hornbeams, officially became a scientific ornithological observatory.

From today, the best selfies can be taken from the Giant Bench in Lago, in the “Laste de Col” area, in the municipality of Revine Lago, from where you can admire a splendid view of the valley’s lakes. To record your visit to one of the many Big Benches, the Livelet Educational Archaeological Park and the Osteria al Barique, official initiative passports and stamps are available.

It can be reached from the church in Lago via an uphill path through the woods.

The path continues on to Pian de le Femene, taking you up to 1,200 metres above sea level to the Casera Vecia farmhouse, which began 30 years ago as a small mountain ‘cheese dairy’.

Il Leone Alato

After months of work and great effort, ‘The Winged Lion of Martalar’ was unveiled in August 2025. Located in Fratta di Tarzo, it is a historic symbol of Venetian identity. Crafted from over 3,000 pieces of tree roots felled by Storm Vaia, it is the largest wooden lion in the world, standing over 7 metres tall and 10 metres long.

The work embodies the values of strength, protection and justice of the Most Serene Republic. Long an emblem of the lagoon city and the entire Veneto region, the winged lion is linked not only to the figure of St Mark, the patron saint of Venice, but also to the region’s cultural tradition.

Storm Vaia in 2018, which struck the Alps and vast areas of northern Italy, left a deep scar on the landscape and local communities. The artist Marco Martalar chose to salvage the fallen timber, transforming it into a work that bridges the past and the present: what was destroyed is reborn as a symbol of resilience and hope. To strengthen the connection with the local area, the artist used waste wood from vineyards to create the lion’s mane, thus forging a symbolic fusion between nature and local culture.
