Bait del Germano

Access

To reach Andalo (TN), it takes just under 1h by car from Trento; leaving early, you can park in the free spaces at the beginning of the village.

Introduction

Splendid views rise up towards the Brenta chain, the series of lakes as far as Lake Garda and Molveno...

Description

Not without difficulty, you reach the lift to Doss Pelà. Take the cable car up to 1,776 m, where you take the path signposted Malga Terlago. You then leave the road that leads to the Paganella peak and turn right. Continue on to Passo Sant'Antonio (1,892 m). Here, with a few ups and downs, we pass the area of Cima Canfedin 2,034 m. On the left, you catch a glimpse of Lake Terlago, but a little further on, off the trail, the water mirrors down to Lake Garda in a beautiful meadow full of edelweiss! We continue on until we can see the Bait del Germano refreshment hut from above: we descend and reach the building (2h15 - 1,800m).
After the break, we descend to the nearby San Giovanni Pass (1,675m) and take the path back. A couple of panoramic glimpses of Lake Molveno make up for the difficulties encountered. You pass the locality "Acqua delle Scudelle" 1396 m. And you reach the meadows of Gaggia 1,333 m (2h15), where you descend with the cable car to Andalo.
In summary: a more than decent day's descent +300 m -750 m Dif. E 16 km (including the walk back to the car) for about 4h30 Tot. + all the breaks to see the various places you encounter. Average ride comfort: sufficient
