- Description
-
This hike is one of the many variants for reaching Malga Ritort from Madonna di Campiglio.
An easy itinerary of negligible elevation gain, this can be a good solution for an outing when the weather is uncertain and a longer, more challenging hike is not recommended. After an initial section through a beech forest, the trail comes out into an ample clearing in the pasture lands near the farmhouse to reveal a spectacular view of the majestic Brenta Dolomites. The return trip can either follow the same route in reverse or the paved road through Patascoss and back to Madonna di Campiglio, this time to the north of the town.
