Holiday apartment in Falcade: Historic Village Center and Peaks

Falcade Alto is the historic village center of Falcade. Falcade Alto features a remarkable complex of historic houses.

The Giro delle Coste: Length, Duration and Elevation Gain

The Giro delle Coste circular trail is 5 km long and takes approximately two hours. It is easy and has an elevation gain of 230 meters. Its length and approximate duration make it a clearly defined component of a day in Falcade. Those who combine the circular trail with a visit to the village center or a regional cultural site can treat the walking time as a separate section rather than combining several themes in the same part of the day. This allows the activity to form an active part of the day, while leaving the rest of the day open for other specific destinations. When planning the day, distance, duration and elevation gain can be taken into account together if the circular trail is planned as a separate item on the itinerary.

Peaks in the Area Around Falcade Alto

Monte Tamer, Cimon della Stia and Cima del Lago are peaks in the area around Falcade Alto. Cima Zopel is a peak in the vicinity of Falcade Alto. The peaks form a distinct landscape area alongside the historic village center and the circular trail. For a stay involving varied interests, this landscape area can complement a museum visit, a visit to a ruin site or a visit to a church. Alongside the houses of the village center, the landscape adds a second, clearly mountain-focused theme. This makes it possible to separate the historic village center from a day focused on the landscape and peaks when planning the itinerary.

Regional Cultural Sites

In the wider regional area around Falcade Alto, Latemar Art is a museum. Also in the wider regional area are Castelveccio, a ruin site, and Chiesa parrocchiale, a church. Those who wish to explore regional culture in several forms can plan visits to these three places separately from the historic village center.

Connections Between Falcade and Falcade Alto

A scheduled bus service runs from Falcade to Falcade Alto. The Falcade Bike Trail leads to Falcade Alto along a paved road. When planning routes between Falcade and Falcade Alto, the scheduled bus service and the paved Falcade Bike Trail can be considered two different connections. Those who visit the village center on a different day from the circular trail can treat the journey between Falcade and Falcade Alto as a separate planning segment using either of the two connections. The bus service and the paved road represent two different ways of incorporating the village center into the day's itinerary.
