Easy and family-friendly path leading from Malga Ritorto, an excellent refreshment spot, to the picturesque Lago di Ritorto, offering a beautiful view of the Brenta Dolomites.
The Canton di Ritorto area is truly enchanting, first of all for the magnificent view of the Brenta Dolomites.
The path that allows us to comfortably explore Val di Canton is well maintained, marked and visible. The altitude is that of the edge of the forest characterized by firs and larches which turn golden in autumn. Expanses of dwarf pines, meadows and the stream flowing from the lake are the elements of this rural environment particularly suitable for family outings and moments of peace and relaxation.
Only the ruins of Malga Pozza dei Garzoni are now visible, as often happens for many buildings once in use and now abandoned.
At the start or end of the excursion it is possible to stop at the Malga Ritorto restaurant where you can taste typical dairy products, also available at the sales point.
The Lago di Ritorto, the end point, is one of the 5 lakes that can be explored through the famous "Five Lakes Circuit" hike.
