Riscoprire le Prealpi Bellunesi

With this volume, Giovanni Carraro completes the long journey of exploring the Eastern Veneto Prealps, which began in 2011 with Rediscovering the Treviso Prealps, bringing his narrative up to the Valbelluna.

A journey of 543 kilometers on foot through seven areas that showcase the variety and beauty of the Belluno Prealps: from the Coi de Pèra of Ponte nelle Alpi to the Nevegal – Col Visentin area, from Limana to Trichiana, from Mel to Lentiai up to the Piave Canal.

50 itineraries, some of which are unpublished, that touch on ancient stone quarries, mountain huts and cottages, small churches, waterfalls, gorges, and old villages, with views ranging from the Dolomites to the plain. Each route is accompanied by Tabacco maps, a technical table, a QR Code for the starting point, and downloadable GPS tracks from the Ediciclo website. Numerous cultural boxes and reports enrich the narrative with insights on history, legends, and local curiosities, offering the walker an authentic way to know and understand this part of the mountain.

The author Giovanni Carraro was born in Pieve di Cadore in 1966 and lives in Susegana (Treviso). A hiker, writer, and populariser, he is the creator of the Prosecco Hills Trail of Conegliano and Valdobbiadene.
