Tips from the Community
The trail is well marked but not very popular, so if it rains or is humid, the vegetation is tall and very wet.

Pass that connects Campertogno to many itineraries and peaks. For example, you can get to Boccioleto, Scopa, Scopello and Pila. Beautiful observation point.

Alpine pasture with many intact but disused buildings, it is worth a detour from the art path for a visit. Little known and not very popular.

Typical mountain pasture once inhabited all year round where the art path ends. Very nice as a rest area in a mountain setting with an ancient feel.

Church above Campertogno, entitled to the Madonna del Callone, in dialect Madonna 'd sal Calùn, is a place of worship that is part of the local culture in a very profound way so much so that the entire itinerary is entitled to the Life of Mary.

The Madonna known as "del Callone" is the first destination reached on the Art Route. The name "del Callone" ("big callus") indicates the rock outcrop on which the church stands. This was built between the years 1500 and 1512 as a votive offering for escaping danger from epidemics
