Top 20 Natural Monuments around Salcedo

Very small rock labyrinth, but nice to do, be careful in winter that between fallen trees that do not allow passage and the frozen snow you risk getting hurt.

Among the Bassano hills, the Silàn stream rises in the hamlet of Valrovina and descends along the valley of the same name, forming here a spectacular and unexpected waterfall with jutting out and natural pools of crystalline water. The waterfall ends in an enchanting clearing, in the middle of a lush forest with impressive centuries-old chestnut trees, with enormous and twisted trunks. 'Silàn' is a Cimbrian toponym that means 'place where water flows'.

Mount Lèmerle, along with nearby Mount Zovetto and the Magnaboschi Valley that separates them, held great historical significance during the First World War, as the scene of two distinct and bloody battles. In the first battle, in June 1916, the Italian army managed to hold off the advancing Austro-Hungarian army for 10 days, which, with the Strafexpedition, was attempting to break through and invade the nearby Veneto plain. The second battle, the Battle of the Solstice, took place in June 1918: this time it was the British troops, who arrived in the spring to garrison and fortify the area in support of their Italian allies, who countered the last desperate attack of the imperial forces. Today, the mountain's summit is covered in a dense and beautiful forest of tall spruce trees, but during the Great War, Italian engineers had cleared the view to control the entire Asiago basin. On the slopes of the mountain, in 2016, the remains of an unknown Italian soldier and an Austro-Hungarian soldier who fell nearby were accidentally discovered. https://www.storiaememoriadibologna.it/monte-lemerle-monte-zovetto-monte-magnaboschi-3580-luogo

Cave with a considerable development of over 400 meters. At the entrance it immediately divides into two narrow and winding branches: the Ramo dei Ghiri, on the right, and the Ramo dee Strighe, on the left. The tunnels are twisted, very narrow (so much so that the backpack is an impediment to leave at the entrance!), in total darkness, with protruding concretions and narrow passages that at a certain point force you to advance on all fours or to crawl. Entering it is quite impressive: avoid if you are afraid of closed and narrow spaces, complete darkness, bats, cave crickets, spiders (present in the initial meters) and various creatures of the darkness! According to legend, the anguane live near a water source or a stream, inside caves or grottos: hence the toponym 'buso' = hole in Venetian dialect, to be understood as a home or refuge. https://www.ecovicentino.it/esplorare-il-vicentino/la-valle-delle-anguane-e-la-carega-del-diavolo-a-laverda/

The Valle dei Gorghi Scuri is a fascinating and narrow impluvium full of waterfalls, natural pools, whirlpools and lively waterways formed by the Valletta stream, which originates right here. As a frame, a florid and lush vegetation of ferns and moss. The path starts from the hamlet of Capo di Sopra, along a dirt road that runs along the rising gorge carved out by the stream from above, where the first water features can be glimpsed; from here you reach the upper part, the most evocative and fairy-tale-like, where you can venture off-track, as far as the water and rocks allow depending on the season. I recommend the route after the rains, even if the path can be slippery (EE), and in spring/summer, when very green and lush vegetation frames the water.

Enchanting place where you only hear the sound of water pouring between rocks and stones...

lovely place ... just the sound of 'water and nothing more.
