When approaching the pastures of Malga di Malosco, stay on the trail and always be cautious of the presence of electric fences.Tips and suggestions
Rely on the GPX because in some sections this route takes trail paths without signage.Roadbook
Starting from the flaming lakes of Ruffrè, take the trail which passes near a beautiful stream under the shade of tree branches, leading to the Mendola Pass through the forest and a section of bike path.
Once at Mendola Pass, it is possible to take a short detour of about 100m to reach the panoramic terrace overlooking the Adige valley. From here, continue on the paved road that leads to the summit of Mount Penegal. At the top, there is another panoramic point where you can see all the Dolomites starting from the Corno dello Scilliar right in front.
Continue along a stretch of dirt road and then turn onto a short, medium-easy difficulty single track immersed in the forest on the northwest slope that emerges onto a forest road. Staying immersed in the forest, continue on forest roads until reaching the wide and bright flat clearing of the Regole di Malosco.
From there, continue southwards on the forest road to return to the lakes of Ruffrè.
Directions
From the Mendola state road, take the detour to the village of Ruffrè. Descend towards the church and continue downhill towards the Ruffrè lakes.Parking
