Snow, fire and stars at Passo Lavazè (pass)

A snowshoeing experience at sunset topped off with a delicious dinner

Walking in the snow with snowshoes in the Dolomites, admiring the sunset on the Altipiano di Lavazè (plateau). You are surrounded by silent woods and in front of you lie vast stretches of pristine snow. Your snowshoes make a soft muffled sound as you walk through the blanket of snow and, when you glance up, you see the walls of the Latemar aglow with the orangey and red hues of a blazing fire. As you continue to snowshoe, the sun goes down and you must turn on your headlamp. Suddenly, you are only a tiny light surrounded by a universe of stars.

Your tour will be guided by territorial mountain guides, who will tell you about the surrounding nature and they will satisfy your curiosity on the local flowers and wild animals. The excursion is suitable for families with children starting from 8 years of age. Baby carriers are not recommended.

Daylight tours too

You can do the same snowshoeing excursion during the day too, when you can see many tracks left in the snow by red deer, roe deer, foxes and other small wild animals. In the woods, you will discover amazing traces of life, while your footprints intersect hundreds of other tracks. If you wish, you can enjoy a traditional lunch in a mountain hut. This tour is organised every Friday morning from 10.00 to 12.30 hrs.
