Val Sorda e Laghi di Pisorno

Starting from S. Martino di Castrozza, on hard dirt road you reach Malga Tognola. On stupendous rockgarden never trivial you descend into Val Tognola and reach Valsorda, after dozens of small stream crossings. You go all the way up it on forestry skirting the stream, all in a typical alpine environment with thrilling views. After the malga of the same name a last stretch on a technical uphill trail, and you reach Forcella Valsorda. Traverse to Forcella Folga, on a path that is exposed in places, with several pushing sections.

Another traverse first downhill then uphill in exposed sections, almost all in the saddle pedaling to over 2100 elevation with views of Pale San Martino and small lakes below. Reaching the Val Pisorno saddle you descend on exposed and technical singletrack to the Laghetto below. In the woods the trail becomes Incattivisce, with challenging switchbacks and rockgarden, to the stunning Calaita Lake. The return to St. Martin is on dirt road with a short segment on fun trail. Up to Calaita Lake the trail is very unfrequented and the environments are wild. For those who want to save km and elevation gain, you can take the cable car up to Malga Tognola.
