Hiking
The Forte di Monte Ricco, restored and reopened to the public in 2017, often hosts exhibitions and classical music concerts. However, it is advisable to call before visiting to check the opening of the main part. During a summer visit, in fact, it was found that access was allowed only by reservation. An entrance ticket is required but inexpensive. The Fort offers the possibility to walk around the front and internal perimeter, allowing appreciation of the pre-Roman structure. Protected by a moat and a drawbridge, the site also offers a panoramic view of Monte Cristallo.

Built in the last two decades of the 19th century, under the Kingdom of Italy, the Forte di Monte Ricco constituted the heart of the entrenched camp of Pieve di Cadore. It was conceived and built to interdict enemy approaches from the Tre Ponti narrows towards Pieve and Tai along the Piave valley and to act in close synergy with the nearby Batteria Castello, about 200 meters away, as well as with the various artillery positions on the overlying heights, on Monte Tranego, Monte Zucco, Col Vidà.
