Exploring ethnic minority areas: trails and cycle routes of unique charm
Nebeška pot (Heavenly Trail) – Established in 2006, the Nebeška pot (Heavenly Trail) weaves together the spiritual heritage of three nations: Italy, Slovenia, and Austria. This pilgrimage route begins from three points of profound religious significance: Maria Saal in Carinthia, Brezje in Slovenia’s Gorenjska region, and Aquileia in Italy. The paths unite at Camporosso before ascending to their final destination atop Mount Lussari at 1,760 metres. More than just a trail, it represents the shared vision of Italians, Slovenes, Carinthians and Friulians who cherish this land and seek to make it a symbol of peace and harmony between diverse peoples and cultures.

Vertikala SPDT – Starting at Mount Forno’s summit, where three nations meet near Tarvisio, the Vertikala traces a dramatic path along the peaks and ridges of the Western Julian Alps to the Adriatic Sea. Following the Italy-Slovenia border while crossing only provincial lines, this historic trail was mapped over half a century ago by Trieste’s Slovenian Alpine Association (Slovensko planinsko društvo Trst). The route honours six prominent Slovene mountaineers, each section bearing the name of a figure who left their mark on these peaks: Dr. Rafko Dolhar’s path climbs from Mount Forno to Sella Nevea Pass; Henrik Tuma’s route links the Resia and Torre valleys; Martin Čedermac’s way crosses Benecia; Klement Jug’s trail winds through the Collio and Gorizia into the Karst; Zorko Jelinčič’s path traverses the Trieste Karst and the Rosandra Valley; and finally, Stojan Sancin’s route descends to meet the sea.
