Path designed and developed for the inclusion of visually impaired individuals and, for certain sections, for those with walking difficulties. <\/p>\n
Along the 24 km that wind at the base of the main mountain ranges of the Alpago basin, sections of ascent and descent alternate, rarely exceeding 300 m of elevation difference, making it effectively a hiking trail suitable for everyone.<\/p>\n
Partly unpaved and partly asphalted, this foothill trail follows sections of a scenic road built in the 1960s with the intention of enhancing the tourist value of the highlands of Alpago, which still preserve the historical evidence of a remote and recent past, projected towards a future capable of welcoming a tourism sensitive to the values of nature, tranquility, and simplicity.
Covering a long stretch, the “Path of Sensitivity” ideally connects the three municipalities of Alpago (Alpago, Chies d\u2019Alpago, and Tambre) and has been created with great attention to the territory. The endpoints are, on one side, the locality of Carota, just above Pieve d\u2019Alpago, and on the other side, the hamlet of Sant\u2019Anna di Tambre. The trail features several crossing points with the roadways that ascend from the valley, making it always accessible. San Martino d\u2019Alpago, Degnona, Funes, Cruden, Pian Formosa, Casera Pal, and Pianon are the intermediate access points to the trail, allowing visitors to experience this adventure in multiple stages, fully enjoying the tranquility and charm of these places.
Specifically, the “Path of Sensitivity” has two sections where wheelchair access for disabled persons is possible: the first from Carota to San Martino and the second from Malga Cate to Pianon.<\/p>\n
The hiking experience can also be enhanced through the PATH OF SENSITIVITY APP, which, once downloaded for free, will automatically activate near points of interest, sharing descriptive audio tracks, photos, and videos that will broaden the hiker’s experience by providing an intriguing interpretation of the cultural, natural, and scenic aspects of this land.<\/p>\n
The route, partially mapped here, is the result of an idea from the Alpago section of CAI supported through the cross-border project GATE INTERREG Italy – Austria. The trail, approximately 25 km long, runs from northwest to southeast, maintaining an average altitude of 1100 meters at the foot of the mountains of the Col Nudo-Cavallo group that encircle the Alpago area. More information on the project and details on accessibility for visual impairments can be found at www.caialpago.it\/sentiero-della-sensibilita<\/p>\n
ACCESS The starting point is at the Carota refuge, about 3 km above Pieve d’Alpago, following the “refuges” sign. There is ample parking available, without reserved spaces.<\/p>\n
DESCRIPTION OF THE TRAIL Starting from the parking area at the Carota Refuge, the route continues on a road that is partially paved and partially gravel. The trail presents a slight difficulty near the Col Panigal locality, due to a small paved ramp where the presence of a companion is recommended. After about 3 km, we encounter a bridge that allows us to cross the Tesa stream. From this point on, the path continues on a flat gravel road, surrounded by a typical beech forest of the Alpago basin. Finally, after a paved stretch near a small parking area just above the village of S. Martino d’Alpago, it is advisable to stop here to avoid steep ramps leading into the town and then return to the Carota Refuge.<\/p>\n
RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT AND NOTES The trail can also be traversed with a push wheelchair. If intending to complete the entire route, due to its length, a wheelchair with off-road wheels and a swivel wheel is recommended. It is possible to do the reverse route and park above S. Martino, in a clearing to the left along the road, to avoid the steeper ramps.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
