City walk through Belluno
A short walk through the beautiful Alpine city
Belluno, the capital of the province of the same name, is beautifully situated on a headland high above the river Piave. The exposed location and the small size of the city make it an ideal destination for a short expedition. Comprising not too many attractions, the little town exudes an extraordinary atmosphere that should be discovered. In addition to the magnificent dome of Santa Maria Assunta, you should also visit the Palazzo dei Rettori and the Torre Civio.
Short city walk through Belluno
The small, exposed town of Belluno can be perfectly explored during a short city walk. Depending on your mood you should plan about 2 hours for the short walk – (including a coffee stop).
- The short walking tour through Belluno starts at the Piazza dei Martiri along the walkways to the theatre.
- At the Piazza Vittorio Emanuele I turn right onto the Porta Dojona with its beautiful mansions.
- Along the Via Cipro you will come to the Palazzo della Crepadona and the museum – from here it’s only a few steps to the Torre Civica.
- Before you go towards the cathedral, you should make a short trip to the Piazza dell’Erbe and enter the cathedral square via the Via Duomo on the way back. If you have enough time, you can also visit the Museo Civico here.
- After an extensive visit of the cathedral and the Palazzo dei Rettori, you can walk along the Piazza Castello back to the starting point at the Piazza dei Martiri.
Pleasant cafes and pubs, some with panoramic views, invite you to linger along the route.
