Laghi

Highlight • Lake

Laghi, with its 120-130 inhabitants including the districts, is the smallest municipality in Veneto: it is the size of a district, but — like any self-respecting municipality — it has a square, a church (almost as big as the rest of the town!), a town hall, a post office, a cemetery, a bar and an excellent restaurant. The excellent restaurant Dalla Santa is historic and popular, with gnocchi as a traditional specialty.

Laghi is located in the center of the Val di Ferro, a tributary of the Val Posina, crowned by an amphitheater of majestic and jagged mountains, surrounded by fields, reflected in two clear lakes from which it takes its name: a bucolic and scenic picture of rare beauty. In this adorable little village, secluded from the rest of the world, silence and peace reign supreme: it seems like a journey through time!

The Calcàra

Highlight • Structure

The lime kiln was an ancient kiln used to produce lime, and from that, mortar, for construction. It consisted of a two-story barrel-shaped structure made of heat-resistant square stones: the top was filled with limestone, while the bottom was continuously stoked, day and night, for 6-8 days. Lime was obtained from the rock, which was baked at 900°C, crumbled, and treated with water.

The Laghi basin, at the foot of Mount Maggio and Mount Majo, has always been a border area: first between the Kingdom of Italy and the Austro-Hungarian Empire; now between Veneto and Trentino. With the advance of the massive Strafexpedition of 1916, when the imperial troops attempted to invade the plain, the entire valley found itself just steps away from the enemy, and the inhabitants were forced into a mass exodus with just hours' notice. The basin, occupied by the Austrians until the end of the war, was heavily bombed by the Italians.

This small field cemetery, located on a terrace overlooking the Molini district, housed the remains of 48 Kaiserjaegers (Tyrolean imperial soldiers) until 1928, when they were later transferred to the Santissima Trinità cemetery in Schio. All the crosses are labeled 'Unbekannten Soldaten' (unknown soldiers), except for two bearing the names of Anton Burgmann and Vitus Hofer. The area was restored in 1994, with the erection of a black cross similar to the one seen in a 1919 photo.

Laghetti di Laghi

Highlight • Lake

The lakes of Laghi are two gems immersed in nature and nestled between the Vicentine Prealps, in Val del Ferro, a tributary of Val Posina: the village church, the trees, and the mountains are reflected in the crystal-clear waters, creating a scene of rare beauty! It is curious how the village of Laghi takes its name from their presence, and they take the name of the village, having no other toponym.

United by a short channel, they are fed by the Rio Molini-Gusella as an inflow, and give rise to the La Zara stream as an outflow: they originated more than eight thousand years ago, when the entire northern slope of Mount Majo slid down in a block, obstructing the Val di Ferro.

Free parking, picnic area, children's playground, kiosk: in summer they are popular for spending a relaxing day; out of season they are an oasis of peace.
