A landmark of the high landscape and its history.
NATURE IN MANIVA
About this place
Dosso dei Galli is a landmark in the Maniva landscape, associated with the large antennas of the former NATO installation. It introduces a chapter of mountain history distinct from alpine farming.
Planning travel above Maniva
Check high-level road conditions before travelling. Do not plan a crossing towards Crocedomini solely because a road appears continuous on a map: closures change both access and return. Choose stable, permitted places on the route for photographs and stops.
In summer: choose your route first
Use a complete route description and compare length, ascent and terrain with the group’s preparation. Bring suitable footwear, water and weather protection. Check high-level road access and allow a margin for the return; do not rely solely on phone coverage.
