Sentiero archeologico di Cavedine
<p>The Cavedine Archaeological Trail is a route over dirt track that, through sites and archaeological finds, allows you to reconstruct the historical events over the centuries in Valle dei Laghi.</p>
<p>The first part of the archaeological trail follows the western ridge of Valle di Cavedine and after just a few minutes, you will come to the so-called Roman fountain, an underground masonry structure that most likely dates back to the Etruscan period, with a rectangular stone basin to collect aquifer water. The trail continues, offering a succession of other points of interest such as the Assunta capital, which commemorates the people of the valley who emigrated in the last century, but above all the Cosina di Stravino, an ancient Bronze Age burial site, as can be seen from the relics and the funerary items (flint tools, pottery, dagger) found nearby. Before returning to Cavedine, you will come across another historical site of great interest, due to the Roman origin of the funeral inscription and locally known as the carega del diaol (devil’s seat) or queen’s throne. </p>
