Machine-gun pit and 42mm gun position

Read more
Past the opening with the iron cross and the stone altar, the trench runs downhill and the rocks of the Volaia Pass here obstruct the views across the lake. After a few metres, you cross a small step and a tunnel opens up on your left.

This is a double Italian position, where a machine-gun and a 42mm gun were placed. Inside, there is another fork after 7-8 metres: the right path leads to the machine-gun pit with a slit, facing the western side of Mt. Coglians and a canyon to north-east; the left path, instead, makes a left and leads to an opening where a cannon and a slit (much bigger than the other one) used to be pointed at the lake.
