This route was planned by komoot.
The full loop trail is approximately 10.6 km (6.6 miles) long. Komoot estimates a completion time of around 3 hours, but this can vary depending on your pace and how long you spend enjoying the artistic installations and viewpoints.
The trail offers diverse terrain. You'll encounter both unpaved forest roads and natural paths. Smaller sections also include asphalt and paved surfaces. The 'Respiro degli Alberi' portion is largely flat and developed on a beaten forest road, while other parts may require sure-footedness due to varying ground conditions.
The 'Respiro degli Alberi' section, which is about 5 km long, is largely flat and developed on a beaten forest road, making it accessible for strollers with larger wheels. However, be aware that one section descending from Lanzino is not suitable for strollers. The full loop is classified as moderate and requires good fitness, so consider your family's hiking experience.
This trail is distinguished by its integration of art and nature. The 'Respiro degli Alberi' section features various wooden sculptures and art installations by local artists, designed to harmonize with the environment. You'll also pass by the Bertoldi Church, the Fontanela de l'Etelar, and the Austro-Hungarian Military Cemetery of Slaghenaufi. Don't miss the Sentiero delle Sorgenti – Wooden Animal Sculptures.
Yes, the trail winds through forests and leads to panoramic viewpoints. You can expect stunning views of the Valsugana valley and, in some sections, glimpses of the Brenta Dolomites, Vigolana, and Lake Caldonazzo.
The trail is beautiful in various seasons. Autumn offers vibrant foliage, making it a particularly scenic time. In winter, with sufficient snow, parts of the 'Respiro degli Alberi' section can be used for snowshoeing. For general hiking, spring through autumn provides pleasant conditions.
While specific regulations for dogs are not detailed, generally, dogs are welcome on trails in this region, often requiring them to be on a leash. It's always a good idea to check local signage or official Alpe Cimbra tourism resources for the most current rules regarding pets.
Specific parking locations are not detailed in the provided information, but trailheads in the Alpe Cimbra region typically have designated parking areas. It's advisable to check local maps or the official tourism website for Alpe Cimbra (like visittrentino.info) for precise parking information near the starting points of the Sentiero delle Sorgenti or Il Respiro degli Alberi sections.
