WHY THIS HIKE

Lake Cima d'Asta hike

There's a glacial lake waiting for you at the foot of Cima d'Asta. We get there on foot, through granite rocks and breathtaking views. Ready to discover it with us?

Group chat a couple of days before

Come alone, leave with new friends

The experience

We start from Malga Sorgazza, surrounded by biodiversity and authentic landscapes, climbing towards the Cima d'Asta massif. The trail reveals scenery shaped by granite, leading to the glacial lake next to Rifugio Ottone Brentari: one of the most striking spots of the whole day. As we walk, we learn to read the landscape from different angles: geomorphological, botanical and historical, to truly understand what this mountain has to tell.

Why join us - experience a glacial lake that feels suspended in time - walk through unique granite rock formations - discover high-altitude flora and mountain history - come home with a new way of seeing landscapes

Get ready: this is an adventure to live with the Guidders, the community for anyone who loves discovering places like this.

1,100 m D+ · 14 km · 6 h

Easy

Perfect for those who want to enjoy nature without too much effort. Short, well-marked trails with gentle slopes. No technical difficulties, just a desire to walk, breathe in the fresh air, and share the day with a group.

Ideal for: Beginners, families, those who want to take their first steps in trekking.

Easy Plus

A little faster pace, but still accessible. Slightly longer routes or with a few more hills, requiring some walking experience. The terrain is always easy and safe.

Ideal for: Those who walk regularly and want to challenge themselves a little.

Intermediate

Here we enter the world of true trekking. Steeper climbs, stretches on uneven or longer trails that require stamina. The physical effort is medium to high, and the fatigue is noticeable... but so is the satisfaction!

Ideal for: Those who already have experience and a good level of physical fitness.

When the mountains begin to take their toll. More challenging routes in terms of gradient or duration, with technical sections or uneven terrain. Even a medium elevation gain can be tough if concentrated in just a few kilometers

Ideal for: Trained hikers, accustomed to walking on mountain paths

Difficult

Level suitable for experienced hikers with excellent stamina and surefootedness. The physical challenge is high, and there may be steep sections or possible exposure, which is always noted in the hike description. Perfect for those who enjoy pushing their limits and conquering significant peaks.

Ideal for: Those who already have experience in an Alpine environment and want to challenge themselves.

Difficult Plus

Only for true Guidders with their Wild Spirit at its peak Long routes, significant elevation gain (over 1,100 m), and technical or exposed terrain. Excellent physical preparation, sure-footedness, and the ability to manage fatigue at high altitude are required.

Ideal for: Highly trained and experienced hikers in the mountains.

Exposure and exposed sections

MEDIUM

Some exposed or ridge sections, short and well marked. Better if you don't suffer from vertigo.

Giulia T.

We'll email you when they have a new outing on the calendar.

Hi Guidders! 🧡 I'm Giulia, a mountain hiking guide in Trentino. I spend time in the mountains all year round, practicing different activities that let me see this land from ever-new perspectives: the same slope, depending on how you cross it, is never quite the same place. For me, this job is above all a great passion. During hikes, I love sharing my love and respect for the land, and giving participants an authentic, fun and safe experience. See you in the mountains, Guidders!
