History
The Ivano Dibona is a restored historical route, which was used by Italian troops during World War I. The route was explored in the 1960s by Freddy and Ivano Dibona, subsequently made safe for tourists, and reopened in September 1970. It was named after Ivano Dibona, who had perished on Cristallo in 1968. Remains of military contstructions from 1915-1917 are still visible along the route: casemate, barracks and ladders.
