The path from Passo Rolle to the summit of Castellazzo in the heart of the Paneveggio Natural Park combines a hike of breathtaking views with an opportunity to reflect on the sense of spirituality that the mountains offer. This walk culminates with a statue of “Cristo Pensante” found at the top of this nearby mountain and provides the chance to leave behind the distractions of everyday life and find the time for some peace and tranquillity. The trail called “Trekking del Cristo Pensante” is now one of the most classic and popular itineraries in the Primiero area. The statue of the Thinking Christ is carved from a block of white marble from Predazzo, bears a crown of thorns on his head created with barbed wire from the Great War.
