This is a fascinating and at the same time demanding hike, ideal for those who like mountaineering on extremely unpopular and technical paths – with the only exception being the section of the itinerary along the Alta Via delle Dolomiti No. 2 -. The route shapes a loop around the Dolomite mountain group of Cimónega…
This really short itinerary is an easy and very pleasant walk for everyone. The walk takes place entirely on the bottom of the Primiero Valley, through residential areas of the village of Transacqua until reaching the shrine, in an environment rich of water and covered by the the shade of the forest of Pinédi…
This is a promenade that develops outside the village of Imèr. The characteristic of this track, which is not particularly interesting if seen from a purely hiking point of view, is that it is passing through the beautiful and interesting artworks called Street Barch Art, made by the local artists Gianluigi Zeni and Nicola Degiampietro.
The loop presented here is a rather unknown route, drawing a loop on the north-western slope of the hill of Cordognè (1,313 m asl). The strength of this itinerary is the fact that the various farms, meadows and ruins from which it passes often leave the feeling of time travelling straight into the past.
Although it is more popular to get to the cross of Croce del Padèla starting from the highest locations of either Caltena or Valtegnarich, the traditional and much more demanding access route is the “direttissima” (tr. direct trail), which starts from the village of Transacqua…
This trekking starts from Rifugio Vedèrna and explores the southern side of Monte Pavióne, a mountain situated within the Vette Feltrine range, passing by Malga Monsampian and Rifugio Dal Piaz. From the top of Monte Pavione, you can see all the Primiero valley, in addition to the Pale di San Martino.
This short itinerary develops in the area surrounding the village of Imèr called “Solìvi” (tr. Exposed to the sun – south oriented). The trail, not particularly popular, passes in the proximity of typical architectures and farms, providing several hints about the agro-pastoral past…

If you are an experienced hiker looking for a short but intense itinerary to do in half a day, featuring technical sections on little-known trails and passing by the wonderland offered by the so-called “buse” of Vette Feltrine, this route could probably fascinate you. The loop itinerary stretches for just over 10 km and passes through some of the most enchanting and lonely places in the Dolomite chain of Vette Feltrine…
This hike is an easy and well marked loop around Transacqua, on the bottom of Primiero Valley. Despite being a very short loop around the town, it still features some nice views of villages such as Fiera di Primiero, Transacqua and Ormanico, as well as Pale di San Martino and Vette Feltrine mountains.
Given that it does not require any technical difficulties and it is also suitable for families, this hike is one of the few at the same time easy and spectacular, allowing you to jump straight into the environment offered by the western side of the Pale di San Martino, observing the walls of Cimón della Pala and the geological conformations in the proximity of Cròde Rosse…
This itinerary develops on an unusual route, although it passes through some of the most visited places of the Dolomites of Pale di San Martino. The track is proposed to those who are expert hikers and love the via ferrata of the Dolomites. Due to its length (19 km), the four via ferrata that it crosses and a total shift of more than 1,500 m, we suggest to not so experienced hikers to avoid it…
Given the presence of this cute little animal in this specific area of the Pale di San Martino, we called this itinerary “the tour of the marmots”. The route is a relatively easy loop of about 4 hours with 800 m of elevation gain starting in San Martino di Castrozza, without any particular technical challenge.
It is probably worth mentioning that the trail called “Trekking del Cristo Pensante” is now one of the most classic and popular itineraries in the Primiero area.

The itinerary that, starting from the chalet of Malga Ces, leads to the marshes of the so-called Piani della Cavalazza (or Cavallazza) is a hike which is suitable for everyone, including families, since it does not feature an advanced climb while it still allows you to enjoy some incredible views offered by these beautiful and relaxing places…
This long and fascinating route draws a loop in the western part of the Dolomite group of the Pale di San Martino – or Pala Group -, between the valleys of Val Venegia and Valón de le Comèlle. Certainly, the most interesting part of the itinerary is when the itinerary crosses the so called Faràngole…
This short and simple hike develops on a fairly remote corner of the territory of Primiero, closed to Passo Valles. Valàzza and Juribrutto, with their pastures, are pleasant and usually extremely quiet locations, surrounded by a landscape stretching from the Dolomites of Pale di San Martino and Val Venegia, extending over the Lagorai range.
This mountaineering itinerary not only features the ascent to Cima Vezzana, which proud of its 3,192 m asl is the highest of the Dolomites Pala Group, but it does so by climbing along the most popular Via Ferrata of the Pala Group (on the most iconic peak): the Ferrata Bolver-Lugli…

This simple hike, almost entirely in the forest, starts at the far north-west of the territory of Primiero, by Travignolo stream. The trail passes through three different communities: Primiero San Martino di Castrozza (Primierotta), Moena (Ladina-Fassana) and Predazzo (Fiammazza).
This simply amazing high altitude itinerary was born with the aim of combining history with natural beauty, in a unique combination of its kind. Long but not technically demanding, the trek develops around the massif of Cima Bocche, well known above all for the events related to the First World War…
Lakes of Reganèl? Probably, if you asked where these pretty lakes in a remote corner of Lagorai are located, many locals would not be able to tell you the answer. This hike, which starts from Caoria, draws a loop on the eastern slopes of the massif of Cima d’Asta, in one of the least visited corners of the Valley of Vanòi…
This rather short but intense hike is ideal for snowshoes, in the presence of snow. The route develops around the bottom of the valley called Val Lòzen: the nice valley of the stream of Lòzen (a.k.a. Torrente Lòzen), which flows from Pisorno and Calaita into the Vanòi Valley, close to the village of Canal San Bovo.
This walk draws a loop in the middle of the so-called “Sentiero Etnografico del Vanoi” (tr. ethnographic route of the Valley of Vanoi). The loop develops clockwise along the path marked as “Sentiero dei Pradi”, around the meadows of Pradi de Tognòla, more commonly known as Masi di Tognòla…

This itinerary takes place in its entirety right above the hut of Rifugio Treviso, in the heart of the mountain chain of Val Canali, eastern block belonging to the Pala Group. The most interesting part of the route is possibly the ascent on the Via Ferrata Fiamme Gialle, that leads to the bivouac named Bivacco Reali…
This hike crosses the extreme south-west part of the Dolomites group of the Pale di San Martino, developing around the mountain ridge of Cima d’Oltro, Le Rocchette and Feltraio. From the cross on the top of the mountain you will be rewarded by one of the best sights of the Valle di Primiero.
Traditionally and differently to the trail here described, this loop is proposed in an anticlockwise direction, in order to be able to face the Ferrata Fiamme Gialle while ascending. However, the stretch of Vani Alti is a climb which, from the hiking point of view, is to be considered technical and exposed…
Located between the mountain group of Pale Alte block and the rocky ones of Garfol, the gap of Passo del Palughét is particularly suggestive and panoramic, as it offers a natural balcony facing the beautiful north-western walls of the Cimónega peaks, made even more impressive by the suggestive lights of the afternoon and the sunset…

Not far from the bivouac, it is possible to see several remains of the Neptune plane, tragically crashed on 19th of July 1957, causing 11 fatalities.
