Trekking among Sella and Sassolungo mountain ranges: guided hiking tour

Together with the local Alpine Guides, you will experience a pleasant 3 day hiking tour: a special opportunity to get closer to the exciting world of mountain treks and learn more about the Ladin culture of Val di Fassa, one of the most renowned Dolomite valleys.

Walking on this itinerary, you will admire the succession of gentle alpine grasslands and wild valleys nestled between imposing vertical walls, the characteristic lunar landscape in the heart of the Sella rocky plateau, the warmth of the Alpine hospitality with the traditional flavors of good Trentino cuisine…and the magic of Enrosadira.

Once you reach the hut, waiting for you there will be an incomparable show of lights and colors that at sunset light the mountains of fire red shades that disappear in the darkness of the night leaving room for romantic starry skies.

One of the most scenic and emotional hiking tour in Trentino, up to you the choice of when to leave!
