Passo Manghen is where the main Lagorai chain begins. Classic ring tour that gives hikers great horizons, stony peaks and the typical vegetation of the high mountains.

The main goal in our itinerary, Lake Buse is a stretch of water nestled among green pastures. In early July, the spectacular flowering of rhododendrons gives the landscape an enchanting note, together with juniper shrubs and blueberry plants. The name of the lake in the Val di Fiemme dialect means "lake of holes".

If you go the other way around, you can reach Lake Buse in about an hour's walk.

Author’s recommendation

On the way you come across one of the Monumental Trees of Fiemme, "The Eternal", a dry Swiss pine towering above a large porphyry stone. For over a millennium, it has resisted the dangers of time and wind.

Questions and answers

Question from Angie Stars · August 13, 2022 · Community
Salve vorrei sapere se il percorso al lago Buse è consigliato a chi soffre di vertigini e se ci sono dei punti esposti. Inoltre volevo sapere se ci sono, a Cavalese, associazioni che organizzazioni questa o altre passeggiate. Grazie

Buonasera, nel primo tratto di escursione c'è una parte di sentiero esposto. Le consiglio di fare andata e ritorno sullo stesso sentiero andando direttamente al Lago delle Buse e tralasciando la parte della Forcella. Le escursioni accompagnate sono organizzate dall'ufficio turistico, chiami il numero 0462 241111.

Giro ad anello molto bello e non troppo impegnativo. Io l’ho fatto al contrario e secondo me è meglio in quanto si evita tutto il dislivello all’inizio ma si distribuisce lungo tutto il percorso.
