An extremely rich route in important points, starting from the departure square - Piazza della Transalpina/Trg Evrope - to arrive at various open-air museums that mark a now lush and verdant territory. Among them, Monte San Michele/Debela griža is certainly one of the most famous mountains concerning the war front of the First World War in the Isontino area. On it, an important Open-Air Museum has been established collecting remains still clearly visible from the conflict as well as numerous monuments erected locally after the war and a wonderful multimedia museum. A further cultural contact will finally be given by the destination of this stage: San Martino del Carso, made famous by the poetry dedicated to it by the poet and soldier Giuseppe Ungaretti.
