Fascinating route that delves into the heart of the Maddalene group, mountains that are rarely visited and thus quiet and peaceful.
Circular hike starting and ending at the well-known Malga Bordolona. The route is never too steep and after reaching Lago Trenta, it goes around the homonymous summit and climbs the Val Clapa before descending again to Malga Bordolona.
The best time to explore the Maddalene Group is July, when the vast expanses of Rhododendrons are in bloom and the valleys turn a deep pink.
On the way back, a tasty stop at the Malga Bordolona farmstay and its excellent mountain cheese shop is well worth it.
