Tips from the Community

Werner K
June 9, 2026, Monastery of Santa Maria Assunta

For five centuries, the nuns have continuously led their spiritual and busy lives in the monastery according to the rule of Saint Benedict. In recent years, the monastery buildings have been extensively restored, making the complex shine with new beauty and harmony. Art lovers of all kinds will be delighted by the monastery. Inside, there are three neoclassical altars and wall paintings from the late 15th century. Of particular artistic interest is also the Pietà, a gilded and painted linden wood sculpture in a side altar from the 15th/16th century.

The Ganitt quarries are a spectacular sight. The mountain looks as if it has been injured.

Challenging trail with many large rocks, steps and sharp turns. Avoid going uphill.

The maintenance of the trail leaves a bit to be desired. Going up from the north "A Bassera" you encounter a very steep section where you have to push your bike for a short distance.
