Dosso di Costalta from Redebus Pass
Hike from Redebus Pass to the peak of Dosso di Costalta, with a panoramic view on the Lagorai Dolomites
A very scenic hike of easy travel that from the Redebus Pass leads to the top of the Dosso di Costalta, the most famous and popular mountain of the plateau on the border between Piné and the Valle dei Mocheni. Precisely because of this border position, the panormana that can be enjoyed from above (1955 m) is very vast and extends from the Lagorai chain to the Brenta Dolomites. The duration of the outward journey is about two and a half hours, passing halfway through the Malga Cambroncoi (1710 m).

Destination
Turn-by-turn directions
Near the car park you will see the SAT signs pointing to the start of trail No. 404 up to the summit of Dosso di Costalta.
Enter the wood uphill.
The trail climbs until it joins a road coming from the right. Continue to the left until you leave the wood at the fields of Malga Pez ( 1582 m ), leaving the dirt road and returning to the trail (SAT signs).
At Malga Pez the trail, skirting the dairy to the north, re-enters the wood.
After an initial uphill stretch, the trail features some ups and downs in a fir wood until it reaches the last uphill stretch in the fields of Malga Cambroncoi ( 1709 m ).
Go up to the mountain dairy and when you reach the access road, on the west side of the building, descend to the bend just below.
Here you leave SAT trail No. 404 and continue along a dirt lane.
At the bend continue straight ahead and cross the field of the mountain dairy (Signs of the Giro delle Malghe Tour).
After passing by a water supply tank, re-enter the wood at the sign.
The dirt lane becomes rather steep, with numerous bends, and leaves the wood once again at 1850 m, at the crossroads with SAT trail No. 404, where you turn right and leave the road.
The trail allows you to pass the last uphill stretch and last wooded stretch, which separates the underlying meadow from the fields up towards the summit.
The cross and some large cairns indicate the summit.
Note
Public transport
From Trento bus station, take line B403 towards Montesover (Trento - Pergine - Baselga di Pinè - Montesover) or line B402 (Trento - Nogarè - Baselga di Pinè -Montesover) and get off at Centrale di Bedollo. There are no public transport that connect the town of Bedollo with the Redebus Pass so the place of departure must be reached by own means.Getting there
Reach Passo Redebus (1453 m), across Val dei Mocheni, up from Pergine Valsugana or from the Altipiano di Piné. The car park is on the side of the Altipiano di Piné, on the right edge of the road ascending from Bedollo (West – SAT sign).Coordinates
