Valagola e i trail della Val Rendena

This hike begins at the large parking lot across from the Pinzolo ski lifts. Ride up to Sant'Antonio di Mavignola on a paved road closed to traffic. Follow the trail to the beautiful dirt road that gently leads to the mountain hut and Lake Valagola. Once past the lake, the slopes become steeper, and you’ll need to push your bike for about 250 meters of elevation gain. We arrive at the Cappelletta del Passo Bregn de l’ors, where the Brenta Group reveals itself in all its splendor. After some ups and downs, we reach Passo del Gotro, where we descend toward Malga Movlina.

Before reaching the mountain hut, take the beautiful trail that descends to the right through the meadows and leads to Malga Bandalors. From the mountain hut, a trail begins that’s rideable at first but then features several short sections where you’ll need to push your bike all the way to Pra Rodont. From Pra Rodont, take a short, easy forest road until you reach the Circinà trail. Another very short stretch of forest road, and then down the Cavradoss trail. Once at the bottom, cross to the other side of the stream via a wooden bridge and tackle some short uphill sections to return to Sant’Antonio. From Sant’Antonio to Pinzolo, follow the technical trail that cuts across the paved road taken on the way there. The trail is rated S2 with short S3 sections.

We started from Sant’Antonio di Mavignola, where parking is limited, however. You can find more photos and information in the photo report.
