Grass-covered hill historically used for grazing, whose name probably derives from the Latin pettia (parcel), the Monte Pezza, with its 1,436 meters, is one of the most picturesque peaks of the pre-Alpine ridge that separates Valbelluna from the Venetian plain. Along this chain, other panoramic peaks follow, such as Monte Visentin, Col dei Magói, Monte Agnellezze, Col delle Poiatte, and Monte Cor.
Monte Pezza is the highest peak in the Municipality of Limana and offers a wide panorama of the surrounding mountains and the underlying plain. The summit can be reached through several hiking routes, including the Monte Pezza ring, which allows visitors to immerse themselves in a natural environment characterized by silence, pastures, and seasonal blooms.
The area also preserves traces of ancient pastoral activity that characterized these slopes. At the Casere Pezza, on the ridge at an altitude of 1,456 meters, there are the remains of a mountain hut complex consisting of a casera, a casello, a storage area, and a stable, already mentioned in documents from the 15th century. A little further west, the ruins of a large stable with milking passages and two stone enclosures (mandre) for livestock still survive.
