Since 1804, people have been gathering the third weekend of September each year to make a pilgrimage to the Santuario di Santa Maria in the Austrian town of Luggau. Initially done by locals to give thanks to the Virgin for sparing them from the plague, this beautiful nine-hour excursion to Austria is a telling act of devotion. Join local on Saturday before dawn in the historical center of Cima Sappada, then head to the source of the Piave River and continue toward Luggau. The weekend pilgrimage concludes in Sappada on Sunday evening with a mass of thanksgiving.
