Val Gelada - La Via delle Valli

Val Gelada - La Via delle Valli title=

This is a moderately difficult but rewarding panoramic hike through one of the wildest valleys of the Brenta Dolomites.


The 1,000 metre climb to Bocca dei Tre Sassi, the highest point in Val Gelada, takes you through a variety of different environments and landscapes. First, you will pass through the vast pastures of Malga Monfidrà, followed by the dense fir and larch woods, which boast an intense green colour in summer and warm hues in autumn. The valley then widens, the vegetation thins out and an open view of the northern peaks of the Brenta and the horizon towards the Presanella peak and the Adamello glacier emerges. Finally, you will see the typical Dolomite landscape covered in debris, the result of nature's extraordinary modelling power and thousands of years of geological processes. The path crosses pastures and woods, climbing up Val Gelada through increasingly wild terrain. After passing a few rocky outcrops, green clearings filled with alpine flowers suddenly appear. Here, the true guardians of the valley can often be seen: the chamois. They are perched like sentinels on the rocks or passing in groups on the debris-covered scree slopes.

As you continue the climb, nature presents another one of its unique and evocative creations: a large hole in the rock that acts as a natural window, creating magical interplays of light and shadow. The final section of the route involves climbing over debris-covered terrain until you reach Bocchetta dei Tre Sassi, which sits at an altitude of 2,613 metres and connects Val Gelada with Val delle Gere.
