The front ran at an altitude of 3,800 meters. On June 13, 1918, the Austrians carried out a mock attack towards Bormio at the Tonale Pass on the border between today's Trentino and Lombardy. They wanted to distract from the major attack much further east on the Piave. The attack failed on the first day due to the well-fortified Italian positions.
