Tips from the Community
Here you'll find a group of engraved monoliths (engraved stone blocks) dating back to the Copper Age (about 4,500 years ago, or the 3rd millennium BC). These stelae were part of an important ceremonial and megalithic site, where rituals were held. They are characterized by engravings depicting celestial symbols, animals, weapons (such as Remedello-type daggers), and stylized human faces, sometimes with decorative elements such as pendants and collars. The original stelae have been removed for conservation reasons and are on display at the MUPRE (National Museum of Prehistory of Valle Camonica) in Capo di Ponte. Reproductions are visible here.

I've done it twice in the same lap, first from Desso, then after climbing Monte Pora. They're completely different. From Desso, it's long and always in double digits, with significant peaks, so take it with a pinch of salt; the other is rideable. Seeing is believing. 🚴♀️
