The hike through the Sopranes Lakes is a challenging but rewarding experience, suitable for more experienced hikers. The circular route extends for over 17 km, with an elevation gain of over 1100 meters. The itinerary requires good physical preparation and sure footing, as it includes steep and particularly exposed sections, such as the descent from Passo del Valico.
Despite the difficulties, the hike offers extraordinary views of the lakes, whose waters vary in a range of shades and reflections depending on the time of day and weather conditions. The proposed route includes visits to five of the ten lakes, but with more extended planning it is possible to explore the entire group.
For those who wish to extend the experience, it is possible to divide the hike over multiple days, staying overnight in one of the accommodations along the route. Each stage offers new perspectives on this fascinating corner of Alto Adige, making each day an unforgettable adventure amid unspoiled nature and stunning landscapes.
