The Retic Path is a way of traveling that prioritizes quality over quantity, focusing on the connection with the territories and the discovery of their typical dishes, which represent their cultural essence.
The Retic Path is connected from its name to the pre-Roman past of the city of Feltre and the entire Feltrino area, characterized by the presence of the Reti, a culture that, from its epicenter in Trentino (for example, the findings in Sanzeno, which give its name to one of the most important variants of this culture, that of Fritzens-Sanzeno), then spread to the upper Vicentino, the Bressano area, and generally to South Tyrol (especially with the material culture variant of the Luco-Meluno Culture), and to all the territories included between the eastern area of today's Switzerland and Carnia. The Reti were part of a particularly complex territorial framework, which in our territory also saw the presence of the Ancient Veneti – with peculiar aspects that led Giulia Fogolari to identify them as “Alpine Veneti” – and the Carni, who occupied the northern part.
The Gran Giro dei Cammini Retici is an itinerary that connects the Retic Paths through the suggestive landscapes, following the traces of the ancient Retic people. A path that unites the reality of Feltre with the landscapes of the high Venetian plain, through the nature and history of these places.
The walking route is 143 km long with a total elevation gain of 5340m and takes place mainly on dirt roads, mountain paths, and some stretches of secondary paved roads.
The price includes eight overnight stays per person in a double room including breakfast.
