In the woods of the Serenissima<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Leaving the Fa\u00e8-Fortogna station, one takes the paved road that climbs to the Cajada basin, offering beautiful views of the Piave valley and the imposing face of the landslide that, during the last glaciation (25,000-30,000 years ago), detached from the Cime di Caiada, completely filling and blocking the head of the Val Desedan. An impressive forest developed over the large basin formed by the landslide, exploited for centuries by the Serenissima Republic of Venice, which sourced the large trunks necessary to create the masts of its ships from here.<\/p>\n

Upon reaching the basin, the road becomes less steep and crosses the forest, passing in front of the \u201cVilla Scotti\u201d hut, near which one can admire the \u201cqueen of Cajada\u201d: a majestic monumental silver fir, 35 meters tall and estimated to be 200 years old.
The road then continues to Malga Palughet, from where one proceeds past the hut and reaches a spectacular viewpoint overlooking the face of the landslide.                                                                                                                                                         From the viewpoint, the road continues and rejoins the path used for the outbound journey, along which one descends back to Fa\u00e8.<\/p>\n
