WHY THIS HIKE

Lake Lagazuoi and Scotoni hut

From the trenches to a hidden lake, with two alpacas waiting.

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

The experience

The journey starts at Rifugio Lagazuoi, a treasury of Great War stories: trenches and outposts form an open-air museum. From there we drop towards Lake Lagazuoi, a hidden gem among the peaks, where the atmosphere is the kind you do not forget. The route ends at Rifugio Scotoni, where you eat and enjoy the view alongside two alpacas, the mascots of the house.

5 reasons to come - the Lagazuoi trenches, an open-air museum - Lake Lagazuoi hidden among the peaks - Rifugio Scotoni and its hospitality - the two alpacas, the hut's mascots - the easy ride up by cable car

Who it suits A high mountain outing descending from the cable car: some fitness and a sure step are needed.

History, water and alpacas: come and see them with the Guidders.
