Please note that the practicability of the itineraries in a mountain environment is strictly linked to the contingent conditions and is therefore influenced by natural phenomena, environmental changes and weather conditions. For this reason, the information contained in this page may have changed. Before leaving for a tour, make sure the path you will approach is still accessible by contacting the owner of the mountain hut, the alpine guides or the visitor centres of the nature parks, the info offices of the local tourist board.

Departure from the Visitor Center of the Paneveggio Natural Park to reach the glass bridge over the Travignolo creek. Along an easy, slightly downhill path you reach Lake Fortebuso from where you go up to take the state road on the left towards Predazzo. Once you reach the crossroads for Castelir - Alpe Lusia, go up in the direction of the ski lifts and, after the first bend, take a suggestive dirt track to the right that leads back to Paneveggio Natural Park.

We recommend the detour to reach Forte Dossaccio. It is possible to visit only the external part of the Austro-Hungarian fort, whose construction began in 1890. From the top, you can enjoy a magnificent panorama of the Lagorai chain and the imposing Cimon della Pala.
