Stage 4

Passo Rolle – San Martino

Option 1: Moderate

The tour starts at the Passo Rolle and leads you through an impressive landscape with views of the Lagorai mountains and the majestic Cimon della Pala. After a moderate ascent, you will reach the “Rotwand – Roda di Coèl”, from where you can enjoy fantastic views of the surrounding panorama. 

The path continues to the Rosetta Pass, past impressive rock walls and alpine flora. At the Rosetta Pass, you can see the impressive cirque plateau of the Pala mountains. The final ascent to Cima Rosetta rewards you with a breathtaking 360-degree view of the Dolomites, including the Sella mountains, the Latemar, and the peaks of the Brenta massif. 

At the end of the tour, you will reach the top station of the cable car and can return to the valley in a relaxed manner. 

Option 2: Easy

You start at the Passo Rolle and first follow the motorway, located below, to the Malga Fosse di Sopra. There, a sign leads you to the “Sentiero dei Finanzieri”, which leads you down a few metres in altitude. You hike over alpine meadows until you reach a larch forest. 

From here, you continue uphill along the west side of the Cimon della Pala until you reach the striking “Rotwand – Roda di Coèl”. From here, the path continues without great differences in altitude, with beautiful views of the valley and the Lagorai group. Finally, you descend to the Ristorante Col Verde, where you can comfortably end your tour. 

Option 3: Challenging

This difficult option starts at the Passo Rolle and first leads you through the alpine landscape to the Malga Fosse di Sopra, with magnificent views of the Cimon della Pala. After a steady ascent to the “Rotwand – Roda di Coèl”, you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the San Martino valley and the Lagorai mountains. 

The route runs below impressive rock walls and finally leads to the Rosetta Pass via more demanding passages with ropes. The highlight of the tour is the summit of the Cima Rosetta (2,746m), from which you can enjoy a fantastic panoramic view of the Dolomites, including the Latemar, the Rosengarten, and the Sella mountains. 

After the descent, the cirque plateau of the Pala mountains waits for you, a unique geological experience. The long descent down to San Martino di Castrozza runs along a historic military path from the First World War. 

This section is characterised by countless impressive rock formations, and a tunnel that offers you breathtaking views. Part of the descent leads through the forest and finally ends at the valley station of the Colverde cable car.
