Path of Gentians and Edelweiss in the Gaverdinakamm

Between Lake Tenno and the Concei Valley, the Garda mountains reach considerable heights. This is the Gaverdinakamm ridge. The highest peak is Dosso della Torta. Along the entire ridge – up to the Bocca di Trat – the front line between Austrian and Italian troops ran during the First World War.

At the end of the developed section, the broad path curves and leads onto a narrow, somewhat exposed trail crossing the mountain slope in a slight descent towards the southeast.

The final ascent first goes through the northern cirque, then we cross over a notch (Dosso della
