Sass de Stria, a craggy mountain east of Cortina d’Ampezzo in the Dolomites, was once the site of fierce battles between Italian and Austro-Hungarian forces. Today, visitors can explore restored military tunnels, trenches, and fortifications that serve as open-air attractions, while a memorial museum honors the soldiers who fought there. The mountain’s rugged terrain and historical significance make it a compelling destination, but it is also renowned for its first-class climbing opportunities, drawing enthusiasts from around the world.
