Trekking in the Dolomites

ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BRENTA DOLOMITES

The Adamello Brenta Park between waterfalls and alpine lakes

A one-day trek in Madonna di Campiglio in the mountains of the Adamello Brenta Park, in the midst of two completely different geological worlds. On one side the Dolomite rocks, the memory of an ancient tropical atoll, on the other the Adamello mountains of volcanic origin.

These mountains, with their glaciers, are the mother of the watercourses that originate there. We will walk along these streams almost to their sources, see the rushing waterfalls that characterise them, and enjoy the coolness that they give us on the slopes of the Brenta Dolomites. Or we will do the wonderful 5-lake tour in the Adamello group.

Suitable for people who love walking and also for curious and dynamic children from 8 years of age. Depending on the level of preparation, we may decide to make a longer trek with a greater difference in altitude to reach the most famous refuges (Casinei, Tukett, Brentei, Graffer) at altitude and at the foot of the Brenta Dolomites.

Days: THURSDAY and FRIDAY
