835 - Scalata Monte Maggio - Description

This is one of the most beautiful, panoramic and emotional paths of the Alpe Cimbra! Take care: it is not so easy; cliffs and steep precipices expose to risk some parts of the path. It is suitable for trained people. Have a nice trip!
People say that during on a clear day, especially after a nightly storm, from the peak of the monte Maggio it is possible to see the Laguna of Venice. Do you not believe it? Yes, you need to be lucky to trek the “right day”, but when it is so… it is true! The Monte Maggio was the peak of Italia in the South part of Trentino. Here, one hundred years ago, there was the borderline between Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Kingdom of Italy. The big cross and the trenches remember you it. What an amazing panorama from here! To come back with the MTB you can go through the grazing lands of Malga Melegna, near the lake of Coe (with a fresh break to the Hangar Bar) until the Coe pass. Do you not know that at the restaurants Osteria Coe and La Stua there are appetizing jam tarts and pie?
