The route winds through the reliefs that

overlook the Stevenà area, in an evocative and

wild natural landscape. For the most part, it

follows paths and mule tracks, and only for a

short distance two secondary roads of Caneva.

It is suitable for non-expert hikers as it has

a length of about 8 km and almost 400 m of

positive altitude difference. It can be travelled

all year round even if the weather can be very

hot in summer. Lug sole shoes and good water

supplies are recommended.

The route starts just upstream from the square Fiaschetti

of Caneva (where you can admire the centuryold

lime tree) near a historic fountain. Take Via

Tambruz and follow it for about 1 km until you

reach the mouth of the Bocca de Val, next to

the entrance to one of the numerous SP29 quarries

in the area of Caneva. It is right here in this

strip of foothills that there is a precious ‘vein’

of pure calcium carbonate, locally known

as ‘Marmorino’, listed among the geosites

of Friuli Venezia Giulia. From here, take a

mule track that climbs towards the Castle

of Caneva (1), located at the top of the Col de

Fer, in a particularly strategic position, where

the remains of the ancient walls and splendid

bell tower with the church of St Lucy (2) are

still present today. Halfway up the slope, pass

a quarry amphitheatre and deviate into the

valley, then continue on the opposite side up

to the hamlet known as the Red Land, ‘Terra

Rio Fiaschetti

Rio Silliga

rossa’, due to red-brown colour of the ground

and rocks (1.8 km from the start). The whole

route is characterized with typical thermophilic

vegetation: mainly Black Hornbeam, Manna

Ash and Field Maple with a notable presence of

Holly. The aridity, besides being related to the

mild winter temperatures, is also, and above

all, edaphic. The entire route is characterized

by a deeply karst environment with stones

with odd and fascinating shapes, ‘machined’

by millennia of corrosion! The path continues

uphill with steep and relatively bumpy sections

along a mule track, among ancient terraces

now invaded by vegetation. Stretches of arid

meadows make the route varied and wild.

When you arrive on a forest track (2.5 km from

the start), follow its gentle ups and downs

(maximum altitude 400 m a.s.l.) until you arrive

to Pian Salere (4.5 km from the start).

From here, along the ancient path of ‘Madonna

degli Scalini’ (3), climbing up from Stevenà

to the hamlet of Lamar and to Cansiglio, you

descend to the ‘Madonnina’ (4) and end up at

the foothill road (5.5 km from the start). The

route is moderately steep, but splendid and

suggestive. Continue along the paved road

for about 1 km (6.5 km from the start), then

detour to a dirt road which winds through fields

and stretches of woods until it returns to Via

Tambruz and the route starting point.
