Cavaso del Tomba, at the foot of Monte Grappa

Monte Tomba, which gives the village its name, is part of the Grappa massif, and Cavaso del Tomba lies at its foot, in the foothill belt in the north-west of the province of Treviso. The village is at around 250 metres, among meadows, vineyards and hills, with hamlets climbing towards the mountain. Asolo and Montebelluna are the nearby towns for services and work, and Treviso is reached by car across the plain.

Buyers mostly find detached houses with gardens and stone rural houses, some needing renovation. The area suits people who work in the foothill firms and want a small village with the mountains a few minutes away for walking or cycling. Walkers also pass through at weekends for the Grappa and its trails.
