Final stage of the Walk of Peace loop from Kobarid to Cividale del Friuli/Čedad. This section unites the two main elements that have characterized the entire circuit: the panoramic, all-round view of the sites of the Twelfth Battle of the Isonzo, thanks to the open points of view from Mount Matajur, and the ‘direct contact’ with the key points of that same front. This can be experienced through contact with the historical testimonies of Kobarid and its surrounding territories. This city is nationally and internationally known precisely for being the center of that 'route' from which it took its name, which pushed back Italian troops after years of conflict to the Piave line.
Author’s recommendation
In Livek, the Thematic Route is recommended, allowing you to visit seven interesting sites.
In Kobarid, we recommend visiting the "Walk of Peace" Visitor Center, the Kobarid Museum, and the Memorial.
