ALLA FORNACE DI SAN VITO
30 Minutes
San Vito di Cadore
With stroller (in part)
La Fornace is a structure that was built in the early 1900s and operated several times using stones found nearby to transform them into lime. It was used in particular to make the binder for the mortars and concretes needed for the construction and painting of the nearby ‘Palace Hotel des Dolomites’. There were many structures similar to this one in our country and, as there was no cement at the time, their usefulness can be understood. At the site you will find information signs explaining its use and usefulness. An easy walk that is also suitable for children.
From the centre of San Vito (or also from the centre of Borca) take the cycle path towards Borca and continue for 1.5 km until you arrive in front of the Park Hotel des Dolomites, just after the border between San Vito and Borca di Cadore. From here, on the left, you will find a path that takes you to the Fornace in a few minutes. You return back along the same road.
