WHY THIS HIKE
Bella Venezia lakes and Mount Frate
Trekking through magical lakes, airy ridges, and legends of the Lagorai
Group chat a couple of days before
Come alone, leave with new friends
The experience
A wild, exciting, and fascinating excursion that crosses one of the most iconic and mysterious corners of the Lagorai. From larch woods to panoramic ridges, passing through a series of alpine lakes nestled among the rocks, up to the Gradinata dei Tombolini: an itinerary that seems straight out of an epic tale, complete with a legendary dragon watching over its waters.
🌟 With Guiddy, discover the most spectacular trails... and maybe even catch a glimpse of the dragon's trail!
