Scoiattolo sledding track
A 1.4 km track developing from the top station of the Pradel – Palon di Tovre chairlift down to the valley station.
Lake Molveno on one side, the Brenta Dolomites on the other.
Author’s recommendation
To warm up, stop at the refuge: hot chocolate or bombardino, with plenty of whipped cream.
If you still have energy, walk along the educational path Il mondo di Sciury.
The path is usually groomed but we recommend bringing crampons in case there are icy sections.
Derived from the technical difficulty and the stamina requirements.
