Description Details Turn-by-turn directions How to get there Equipment

This little-used high-altitude route offers a magnificent 360° view of numerous mountain groups.

Leaving the Bellamonte 3.0 gondola behind, we take the wide dirt road that climbs steadily and gently to Passo Lusia, where we meet the refuge of the same name. This first stretch is usually very beaten, unlike what follows. The steep section after the mountain station of the lifts ascending from Moena leads into a wilder mountain environment, where silence is only interrupted by the chirping of birds and the sound of the wind.

Please note that the practicability of the itineraries in a mountain environment is strictly linked to the contingent conditions and is therefore influenced by natural phenomena, environmental changes and weather conditions. For this reason, the information contained in this page may have changed. Before leaving for a tour, make sure the path you will approach is still accessible by contacting the owner of the mountain hut, the alpine guides or the visitor centres of the nature parks, the info offices of the local tourist board.

Starting point

Arrival station of the cablecar Bellamonte 3.0

Directions

After ascending with the Bellamonte 3.0 cableway, take the little path which, in few minutes, reaches the forest road. Here you continue in the direction of Passo Lusia (trail No. 623), climbing steadily and moderately uphill through green pastures full of flowers and several small wooden huts. When you reach Passo Lusia, you have to tackle the steep dirt road that leads to Le Cune, at the arrival point of the ski lifts from Moena. From the summit of this hump (Piavac 2,272 metres), the unnumbered path is clearly outlined, running along the ridge in a south-westerly direction until reaching Cima Viezzena. This apparently insignificant peak reveals a magnificent 360° panorama.

The return is along the same route as the outward journey.
