Tour of the Chimneys
<p>During the First World War (1914-1918), the area around Fort Belvedere Gschwent was occupied by various logistical service structures, including, on the slope up towards the Cost pass, a barrack used as a bread oven. Only the tall concrete chimneys remain of the structure, hence the name of the locality, Camini.</p>
<p>This is a short hike that combines interest in historical artefacts from the First World War with nature and landscape interest. Also recommended for families with children over the age of 8. It is worth combining the hike with a visit to the nearby Belvedere Gaschwent fort.</p>
