Via ferrata to Monte Roen

Dear hikers, now that you have come to me, it would be a shame not to take advantage of the possibility to reach the top of the Roen (2116 masl), the highest peak of the Mendola mountain chain. The fastest route (about 1 hour) but above all the most fun, is the simple via ferrata that starts right behind me (trail 523) with a short but steep path. After the via ferrata, the signs will guide you through mugo pine forest to the top of the Roen. The view is breathtaking.

Want to reach the summit without tackling the via ferrata? No problem, trail 500 will take you to the summit in about 1 hour and 15 minutes.

A via ferrata is a route reserved for experienced hikers and therefore it is necessary to tackle it with appropriate equipment.

Chamois Trail

You think the fun's over here? Not at all! The road back to me is just as exciting. A cold beer is what it takes to recover... From the top of the Roen, continue south to Testa Nera and then follow the signs for the Sentiero dei Camosci (560), a spectacular path with equipped sections, also to be faced with the harness, which will take you back to the refuge.

The Sentiero dei Camosci can also be taken the other way round and is therefore the third way to reach the summit (approx. 2 hours).

Sentiero Italia

If the crossing of a mountain range is not enough for you, here we definitely raise the pitch... I am an official stopover and resting point of the Sentiero Italia! Explore Italy along the CAI paths that cross the two great mountain ridges of the country, including the islands.
Stages: SI CO7 from Fondo to Rifugio Oltradige and SI CO8 from Rifugio Oltradige to Favogna

Alps crossing

I'm also an ideal stage for the Alpenüberquerung, the ambitious crossing of the Alps, a trek that goes from Munich to Lake Garda!

Tour of the mountain huts

It is impossible not to mention the possibility of returning to the hut with a longer variant but with guaranteed charm, the tour of the Roen's mountain huts. From the Roen peak, the excursion connects Malga di Smarano and Sfruz (spectacular panoramic point), Malga di Sanzeno, Malga di Don, Malga di Amblar and Malga di Romeno, from where, in about 20 minutes, you return to the starting point. The whole tour lasts about 3 hours and 30 minutes.

Mendola crossing

Are you great walkers? The Mendola crossing is perfect for you! From Mezzocorona, passing through the peaks of Roccapiana, Vigo, Corno di Tres you reach Monte Roen. The following day, after a rich breakfast in company, you will have the right energy to continue to Lake Tret and, why not, to go as far as Passo Palade. Get your legs ready, backpack on your shoulders and be on your way!

Mountainbike

You can also get here on your mtb or e-mtb, of course! Trail 500 from the Mendel Pass is also passable on two wheels, the important thing is to respect hikers as well. Are you an experienced and tireless cyclist? Then the Tour de Non is for you! A journey in four stages, 154 square kilometres and 6005 metres of altitude difference will take you through one of the most beautiful valleys in Trentino among apple orchards, castles, pastures and peaks.

Alta via no.10

I am also one of the stops on Alta Via No. 10 (the longest of the Alta Routes), which starts in Bolzano and ends in Gardone Riviera, by Lake Garda. 200 kilometres along three extensive mountainous areas: the Mendola Crest, the Brenta Group and the Alps of Val di Ledro.
