Historical Steps | On the trail of the Great War

History is walked, listened to and lived. In summer 2026, "Passi di Storia" returns, an initiative that takes residents and visitors on a journey to discover the places that preserve the traces of the Great War in the Sondalo area. A route through memory, nature and high-altitude landscapes, with a lecture dedicated to local history and two guided excursions to the evocative Trincea di Gaveri.

An opportunity to get to know up close a little-known but highly valuable historical heritage, through the accounts of those who have been studying its history for years.

• TRACCE DI STORIA SONDALINA

The first event is scheduled for Friday 17 July at 8.30 pm at the Sala Conferenze Polifunzionale di Sondalo.

The evening’s featured speaker will be Marco Rodigari, writer and local history enthusiast, who will take the audience on a journey through documents, research and stories dedicated to Sondalo’s past. During the event, the book "I sogni del soldato" will also be presented, a work that intertwines memory, human stories and the history of the area.

The initiative is free of charge and does not require booking.
