WHY THIS HIKE

The Castrin mountain huts

A tour of mountain dairies, with an honesty bar in the water trough.

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

The experience

In this corner of the Val di Non we discover the Castrin dairies with the Guidders, walking an easy mule track. We come across several: at some you stop to eat, others are self-service — the owner leaves drinks in the cold water trough with a fixed price list and a small box for payment. We pass Malga Cloz, Malga Revo and the upper Malga Kessel, and finish at the Hochwart tarn.

5 reasons to come - the tour of the Castrin dairies - the honesty bar in the water trough, box and all - the Hochwart tarn - an easy mule track the whole way - the Val di Non away from the tourist circuits

Who it suits An easy route on a mule track: genuinely suitable for everyone, families included.

The taste of the mountain dairy, in every sense: come with the Guidders.
