Cima d'Oro, Mountain summit in Ledro, Italy
Cima d'Oro is a mountain summit near Ledro that rises to about 1,800 meters (5,900 feet). The peak can be reached by several hiking routes that pass through forests and open terrain.
The mountain was a front line during World War I where Italian and Austro-Hungarian forces faced each other. Trenches and underground tunnels from that era remain visible at the summit today.
The mountain paths incorporate sections of the historical Austro-Hungarian war route, marked by white and blue indicators that guide travelers through this Alpine region.
The hike to the summit is demanding and requires good fitness and proper equipment. The route climbs steeply and includes forest paths that can be slippery in wet conditions.
A notable section of the route features an exposed rocky stretch with a metal cable for support as you move across. This element gives a particular segment of the path an Alpine climbing character that goes beyond typical hiking.
