Deggiano: Church, Masi and Routes

Deggiano brings together specific local landmarks and routes that reach the hamlet or offer views from it. The Church of the Santissima Trinità stands in the lower part; the buildings of the Masi da Mont are examples of traditional mountain architecture. These different themes offer points of reference for understanding Deggiano as a travel destination.

Church and village character

The Church of the Santissima Trinità stands in the lower part of Deggiano. This places it in a specific area of the hamlet and makes it a clear point of reference. If you are interested in Deggiano’s village character, you can consider the church as a distinct landmark alongside the Masi da Mont. The focus there is on traditional mountain architecture and the buildings’ former use. This brings two different aspects of the place into view: the church building and rural architecture.

Masi da Mont and their former use

The buildings of the Masi da Mont are examples of traditional mountain architecture. In the past, they were used to store hay gathered from the surrounding meadows. The meadows and buildings are therefore connected in a concrete way: hay was collected here and stored there. This former function links the topic of architecture with the use of the surrounding landscape. A stone well is also located by the rural houses of the Masi da Mont in Deggiano. Its proximity to the houses offers another locally situated point of reference when exploring this part of Deggiano.

Routes and views

The Sundials Route N° 711 leads from Daolasa to the hamlet of Deggiano. From Deggiano, it offers views of Dimaro and peaks in the Brenta Dolomites, including Cima Nana and Sasso Rosso. The route therefore combines a clearly named course with views of a place and several peaks. Conditions on the route depend on the weather; take this into account when planning. Caution is needed on the steep short section of path from Deggiano towards Presson.

The Piano–Deggiano route also reaches the hamlet, here via an uphill path. The defining feature of this route is the climb to the village. By contrast, the Sundials Route N° 711 is described by its course from Daolasa to Deggiano and its views of Dimaro and the Brenta Dolomites. These route details offer different points of reference for planning, without implying that the two routes share the same stretch of path.

Local landmarks or landscape experience

Your travel decision can therefore draw on two different ways of experiencing Deggiano. The church and the Masi da Mont focus attention on local buildings and the former storage of hay. The Sundials Route N° 711 adds views of Dimaro and named peaks, while the uphill path to the hamlet is the defining feature of Piano–Deggiano. If you are looking for a hotel in Deggiano, these aspects can help you choose a destination based on your interests in local history, architecture or routes.
