WHY THIS HIKE

Gaver plain and the Bruffione bivouac

Alpine tarns a step away from Trentino.

Group chat a couple of days before
Come alone, leave with new friends

The experience

We set off with the Guidders into the Gaver plain and climb to the Bivacco Bruffione, on the pass of the same name, a few kilometres from the Trentino border: from up there you look at the Brenta Dolomites on one side and the whole Gaver basin on the other. After exploring the surroundings we drop to the Bruffione tarns, a small gem and a paradise for anyone who loves wild country. The circuit closes as a loop.

5 reasons to come - the Bruffione tarns, a small gem of the Gaver - the Bivacco Bruffione on the border pass - the Brenta Dolomites on one side, the Gaver on the other - a loop that climbs and descends by different lines - genuine, silent alpine country

Who it suits A loop on mountain paths: normal walking fitness and a sure step.

A paradise for nature lovers: come and find it with the Guidders.
