Monte Arvènis

Monte Arvènis rises to 1968 meters above sea level, featuring a rocky upper section that contrasts with the surrounding grass-covered slopes of the Carnia region.

The mountain held military importance during World War I, with a battalion of the 8th Alpine Regiment named after it receiving a bronze medal for valor.

Known as Norvènas in the local Friulano language, the mountain represents a significant geographical landmark in the cultural identity of the Udine province.

The standard route begins at Lenzone at 600 meters, following a road to Malga Arvenùtis at 1515 meters before continuing on foot to Malga Clàupa.

The summit area presents a distinct geological formation where rocky terrain emerges through grassy slopes, creating a natural boundary in the landscape.
