Circular Route of Open-air Museum of Mt. Kolovrat

The starting point is Solarie pass, just before the former border crossing between Italy and Slovenia. Near the mountain hut, it is possible to park your car and immediately see the monument dedicated to the first Italian soldier to fall in the First World War, Riccardo Giusto. After about 50 metres, a gently uphill paved road branches off to the left. Marked as CAI trail 746, it leads to a small clearing where an information panel introducing the museum has been installed. At this point, leave the paved road and continue along the path on the right.7When you reach a fork, continue straight on and after about 10 minutes you will arrive at Passo Zagradan, at an altitude of 1,042 metres. On the left, the slope of Monte Piatto is clearly visible, while on the right stands Monte Klabuk, the summit where the Poti miru v Posočju Foundation from Kobarid has restored part of the Italian defensive positions. By following the tracks on the ground, it is possible to reach the summit and admire these interesting remains, which have been carefully preserved and restored. The route then reaches the top of Mount Podklabuc/Na Gradu (1,114 m), and from here a descending path leads back to the paved road followed at the beginning.
