A balcony overlooking the Fassa Dolomites: wonderful guided loop hike on as yet little-explored paths in the Buffaure area
After reaching the 2,354 metres of "Col de Valvacin" comfortably with the lifts, a refreshing break with a dream view awaits you: you are surrounded by the queens of the Dolomites. Marmolada, Sella, Sassolungo, Sassopiatto and Catinaccio show themselves in all their majesty, so close that you will feel you can touch them with your finger. From here, a trail suitable for all begins, following the ridges along a well-marked panoramic path. The terrain is even and the surroundings spectacular: you will walk with your gaze always open to the valleys and peaks until you reach "Sela Brunéch" and then "Col Bel", the ideal spot to stop and contemplate the view in complete tranquillity. In the afternoon, the trail continues through pastures and woods: passing by Malga Jumela, you will return to "Buffaure" along a peaceful path through the trees, slightly uphill. One last immersion in the quiet of nature before returning, with a lighter heart and your eyes full of beauty.
