Miracolo architettonico a strapiombo sul torrente Leno L'eremo di San Colombano, nel Comune di Trambileno a pochi chilometri da Rovereto sulla statale per Vicenza, si raggiunge percorrendo a piedi un breve sentiero ed una scalinata di 102 gradini, scavati direttamente nella roccia. L'eremo è costruito a mezza altezza su uno strapiombo di circa 120 metri. Protetto dalle intemperie da un tetto naturale di roccia è dedicato al Santo che, secondo la leggenda, in veste di giovane cavaliere uccise il drago che provocava la morte di bambini battezzati nelle acque del sottostante torrente Leno. L'eremo sembra essere stato abitato sin dal 753. La data di costruzione della chiesetta e dell'annesso romitorio risale al X secolo.
