This long walk starts from the very relaxing and fascinating Val Venegia. After the first stretch in the woods, the view opens up wide and panoramic on the valley crossed by a stream and on the Pale di San Martino. Leaving Malga Venegia behind, you reach Malga Venegiota; the temptation to stop is huge, but the path is still long. At the end of a plateau tou finde the wide hairpin bends that lead up to Baita Segantini, an icon of Passo Rolle and home of the mountaineer and tourism pioneer Alfredo Paluselli until 1969.
Surrounded by mountains of entrancing beauty, the descent to Capanna Cervino and Passo Rolle begins. The Cimon della Pala is a giant spur that follows us all the way, as well as the characteristic white walls overlooking the Val Venegia. From the pastures behind the refuge, you quickly reach Malga Juribello, known for its dairy products, and then return to the parking lot.
