Monte Serva, Mountain summit in Veneto, Italy

Monte Serva is a 2,133-metre mountain of the Belluno Dolomites rising north of Belluno, within the Dolomiti Bellunesi National Park. Its southern side carries woods and meadows, while the northern face drops steeply and rocky above the Cajada forest. A rock formation known as the Boca de Rosp is visible from the city itself.

Monte Serva is part of the Parco nazionale delle Dolomiti Bellunesi, established in 1990 and covering the Belluno Dolomites. Its slopes have supported summer pastoralism for generations: cattle and herders still use the main shelter at Pian dei Fioch, at 1,731 m. For the people of Belluno the mountain has long been a traditional destination for outings, summer and winter alike.

For Belluno's residents, Monte Serva is a traditional destination for outings in both summer and winter. In the summer months, herding is still practised on its slopes, with the main shelter for cattle and herders at Pian dei Fioch, at 1,731 metres. The mountain lies within the Belluno Dolomites National Park.

The climb is accessible from Belluno and requires sturdy hiking boots and weather-appropriate clothing, especially during colder months. September offers particularly stable weather, though summer months provide longer daylight hours for those planning a day trip.

The summit view reaches the Schiara group with the rock spire called Gusela del Vescovà, the main Dolomite peaks, and on clear days the Venice lagoon. The Boca de Rosp, a rock formation visible from Belluno, is another landmark to spot.
