Accessibility It is a very important city because it lies on the old commercial and military route. It is on the border between the Feltre area and the Valsugana area. This town allows the passage to the Veneto Plain going south, and with the Trentino and the Tirolo region heading north. This delicate position, during the past century, located Arsié over the borderline between the Republic of Venice and the Empire. For this reason, this town has been involved in all of the historical and fighting episodes of the past. As a sign of this, there are still evident remains and many great castles characterizing this land. The town rises north of a hollow whose southern side is occupied by a large hydro-electrical basin created by the water of Cismon, and blocked by a dam in the narrow area of Rocca-Incino. In its northern side, we find the ridge of Col Perer-Cima Campo, which comes from the Cima d'Asta group, and it runs through the Celado (1165 m) plateau. South of it, there is Monte Cismon (1270 m), descendant of Mount Grappa.The parish in the center of the town was rebuilt over a pre-existing paleo-christian remains: within, there are a few modest paintings by Francesco Bassano, Alessandro Maganza, Giambattista Volpato, and sculptures and so on. In the town, some noble houses can also be seen, well-conserved country houses that remind us of the ancient venetian domination. Going north, passing through the towns of Mellame (in its church there are interesting works by Marascalchi, Terilli, Cignaroli; and a beautiful Lombardesque tabernacle dated in the late 1400's) and Rivai: the road starts to climb all the way up to Col Perer (1020 m) where it is possible to ski and cross-country ski. From the prairie of Col Perer, the panorama opens up to the Vette Feltrine, the plateaus of Lamon and Sovramonte and further away over the Pale di S.Martino di Castrozza and Rolle Pass. Open fields and dark fir tree woods cost the road up to Cima Campo, where the large military structure of the Leone Fort can be found, a huge fortress employed during the war of 1915-1918. It is an interesting place to visit because of its architectural structures and because it is still accessible and it is possible the see the internal defensive facilities, open rooms, tunnels, domes, passages and embankments. The trace, currently almost flat, brings us towards the Celado Pass. Here, you can go on your left towards Castel Tesino and then to the Valsugana, or on your right towards the Lamon Plateau.Another path, from Arsié descends and coasts the artificial lake: from Rocca to Incino and then, through a wild area all the way to the Valsugana and Cismon. From Arsié, the old state road continues west: as soon as you pass the town of Fastro, on the rocks of the sunny side of the mountain, you should stop and visit the "solivi", which are a group of houses all lined up next to each other with a well-preserved country architecture that serves as testimony to the love and care of home construction. The proper use of simple and pure materials such as stone, wood, whitewashed lime material results in a rational and clean environment in contrast to the modern and anonymous buildings. Just over Fastro, the road descends and passes through the walls of the "Scala", another fortress that is very old and testifies to the era of venetian domination. Its actual look, which is a little dilapidated and without much prospect for the near future, is due to the reconstruction done at the beginning of the 1900's (but on the right side, you will still be able to see the traces of the ancient construction). At the end of Valsugana lies Primolano, on the left shore of the Brenta River; instead, on the right side of the narrow valley, you will find the town of Enego, one of the seven Vicenza Counties. From Arsié, the new state road crosses the fields that spread to the lake and if you go through the long gallery, it will meet the Valsugana state road just south of Primolano. This way, you will avoid the slower route Arsié - Fastro "Scala" - Primolano.
