As you can imagine, the passability of routes in a mountain environment is closely linked to current conditions and therefore depends on natural phenomena, environmental changes, and weather conditions. For this reason, the information contained in this sheet may have changed. Before setting off, check the status of the path by contacting the refuge managers on your route, mountain guides, visitor centers of natural parks, and tourist offices.

The ascent of this route mostly takes place on paved road from Montesover. The slopes remain significant to reach the altitude of 1950 m at Malga Sass, passing first through Baita Monte Pat. Crossing the typical wooden fence that borders the pastures around the malga, follow the forest road up to the enchanting Pradi de la Fior, where there is a monument to the fallen. Continuing on the left side of the meadow below, there are passages on wooden boardwalks and then on a forest road among the characteristic mountain huts. To complete the loop, at a four-way junction, turn left and reach the starting path completed to get to Malga Sass.

Montesover is reachable by public extra-urban transport lines B 403 and B 404.

Coming from the A22 Brennero motorway (from the south exit Trento sud – from the north exit Trento nord) and from State Road 12 of Brennero, continue on S.S. 47 of Valsugana to Pergine Valsugana – Padova until the Mochena junction for Altopiano di Piné, then proceed on S.P. 83 di Piné until Montesover.
