The Piccolo Stelvio trail, located on the Veronese hills above the village of Santa Marai in Stelle, owes its name to the characteristic hairpin bends that recall the famous Alpine pass in miniature. This route, particularly loved by cyclists and runners, winds along the ridge that ascends the Valpantena, offering a constant but rewarding climb. Nestled among the vineyards of Valpolicella and silvery olive groves, the path offers panoramic views that stretch from the plain below to the profile of the city of Verona. Beyond its sporting value, the trail is steeped in local history, with the proximity to the ancient Hypogeum of Santa Maria in Stelle adding a mystical charm to the excursion. It is an itinerary that perfectly encapsulates the rural beauty and physical challenge of the Scaligeri territory.

the Zevio town hall was created from a villa which in turn was created from a castle. it is particularly scenic because it is completely surrounded by a moat full of water in which turtles swim, which someone must have thrown in there and now they survive quite well

The Scaligero Castle of Villafranca di Verona is a castle of medieval origin. Inside the walls there are seven small towers called "Torresine" and two shielded towers, that is with only 3 edges. The largest or clock tower has stones with an inscription at its base and it is assumed that they came from an arch (or other building) dedicated to the emperor Tiberius. A curious peculiarity of the Scaligero Castle of Villafranca is that the battlements of the actual walls are of Guelph or flat shape, while the battlements of the keep and the shielded towers are of Ghibelline or "dovetail" shape.
