Tips from the Community
Il Ristoro Crosetta, located at an altitude of 1,118 meters on the homonymous pass that connects the Treviso plain to the Cansiglio plateau, is a historic and unmissable stop for hikers, cyclists, and motorcyclists. This cozy stone and wood structure embodies the quintessence of mountain hospitality, offering a regenerating refuge in every season. The cuisine offers the authentic flavors of the Veneto-Belluno tradition, featuring game dishes, typical Cansiglio cheeses, warm polenta, and fresh mushrooms, all accompanied by homemade desserts and a good glass of local wine. Nestled in a centuries-old beech and fir forest, the establishment boasts a strategic position that makes it the ideal starting point or refreshment stop for exploring the numerous surrounding nature trails, offering an old-world atmosphere for relaxation and good food.

Together with Pian Cansiglio and Cornesega, Valmenera is one of the three depressions that make up the central part of the Cansiglio Plateau. The largest in terms of area. This evocative basin is particularly known for its cold microclimate, where record thermal inversions are recorded with temperatures that, in the winter months, can drop to extreme levels. A historical peak was reached in March 2005, when ARPA Veneto analyses recorded a temperature of -35.4°C. Located in the municipal territory of Tambre (BL), it has a wide and flat bottom, called Piano di Valmenera. It represents a typical polje, whose slopes are largely covered by arboreal vegetation; the western slopes, on the other hand, are characterized by meadows, with rather degraded herbaceous vegetation, due to exploitation in the form of mowing and grazing. The dairy farm of the same name, which today operates as a farm stay, is in fact surrounded by 74 hectares of meadows used for grazing its own livestock. Up to here, through the Campon valley, came a tongue of the ancient and vast Piave Glacier. The Piano di Valmenera and part of the basin are part of the "Pian di Landro-Baldassarre" Oriented Nature Reserve.

If you climb the hill on a clear day, you have a view of Venice, the Jesolo coast and the entire Veneto-Friuli plain.

On the way down from Cansiglio you come across the ruins of Cordignano Castle, located in a strategic position and not open to visitors because it is privately owned.
