The Opitergium-Tridentum road was a Roman road linking the current Oderzo and Trento.
It was probably built in 15 BC, probably following a previous Paleovenet itinerary, is recalled in the Antoninian Museum (ab Opitergio Tridento) where intermediate stations are reported, the station at Cepasias or Cerasias (perhaps Valdobbiadene), Feltria (Feltre) and Ausugum (Borgo Valsugana). Most important are the archaeological evidence, mainly concerning milestones and coins.
The road began at Opitergium, stretching from Postumia Street, and the first stretch coincided with a thistle of the north centurion of the city. Arriving near the Piave, crossed Claudia Augusta Altinate Street and remained on the left bank of the river. From the "close" of Quero coincided with Claudia Augusta: she touched Feltria, traveled to Valsugana and ended at Tridentum.
The itinerary, initially of little strategic interest, was re-evaluated in the late Empire to link the alpine resorts to Concordia Sagittaria, which at that time became an important weapon production center. The movement of troops, at least in the stretch between Oderzo and Piave, is witnessed by the recapture at Caminada di San Polo di Piave of a "treasure" of some hundreds of bronze coins dating back to various periods until the middle of the third century.
