Please note that the practicability of the itineraries in a mountain environment is strictly linked to the contingent conditions and is therefore influenced by natural phenomena, environmental changes and weather conditions. For this reason, the information contained in this page may have changed. Before leaving for a tour, make sure the path you will approach is still accessible by contacting the owner of the mountain hut, the alpine guides or the visitor centres of the nature parks, the info offices of the local tourist board.

Roadbook
Reach Paion del Cermis via the Alpe Cermis ski lifts (open from mid-June to mid-September). Follow the signs for the Bombasel Lakes, trail marker no. 3. The route initially descends along a wide road – which serves as a ski run in winter – towards the “Lo Chalet” mountain hut. You can also reach the same spot by following the narrow path through the woods that starts at the end of the sun terrace at the Paion refuge, where you’ll also find “Panoramio 360°”, a viewpoint offering a 360-degree panorama of the surrounding peaks. Once you reach Forcella Bombasel, the only challenging section begins, consisting of a flight of steps: there are around 85 easy-to-climb wooden steps with a rope running alongside to hold on to. Continue along the clearly marked path, which climbs gently and steadily through ancient porphyry rock formations and green pastures, leading to the beautiful lakes.
The return journey follows the same route.
