Le 3 Croci di C. Baldo - sentiero arancione

Starting from the Church of St. Anthony the Abbot in Vestenanova, one can encounter along the path three of the four crosses erected at the end of the 1800s by Celestino Baldo, a poor shepherd from Vestenavecchia who lived from 1828 to 1900.

You first descend towards the Alpone stream, then climb up to the Stanghellini district. Then you ascend to the Cerati district (with a beautiful cross in the Borgoletto area) and continue towards Rugolotti, from where you reach Camponogara, where there is a votive chapel.

Through the Fenile district, you reach Bolca and continue through Mount Spilecco (where shark teeth have been found) until you ascend Mount Pergo, where the second cross (1898) by Celestino Baldo stands. From Pergo, you can see Mount Quarto di S.Bortolo delle Montagne, where the fourth cross (1900) is located. You then descend towards the "Moto dei Baldi," an ideal place to admire splendid views and the ancient Baldi district, and you arrive at Castellaro, where the third cross (1899) has been recently restored.

Through the woods, you reach Vestenavecchia: in the square near the Parish Church, you encounter the first cross (1894) by Celestino Baldo, and the hike concludes at the foot of the Fratta hill, where the ancient Church of St. Anthony the Abbot has stood since the 12th century.
