Hiking on the Path of Peace

An itinerary 495 kilometers long, from the Passo Tonale to the Marmolada, along the front line and which crosses the entire Trentino borders, connecting the places that were the sites of the Great War, the one fought among the snow and ice and on the mountain crests by the soldiers of the Kingdom of Italy against those of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, during the First World War. Today the Path is a hiking route of great environmental interest and with a profound cultural and historical meaning, well symbolized by its trail sign, a white or yellow dove. The Path of Peace links together kilometers of mule tracks and trenches, dozens of strongholds and fortresses, posts, tunnels and barracks on the challenging heights of perennial glaciers, small cemeteries and large and small museums spread across the valleys of Trentino. The departure is from Passo del Tonale, and you immediately tackle the high-altitude sections and across the Adamello – Mandròn glaciers. After more than thirty days of walking, among mountains, woods, alpine lakes and streams, waterfalls, the Path of Peace ends on the Marmolada glacier, in Val di Fassa.
