Mittel

The classic of the Val d'Ega, the Latemarronda, offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Dolomite mountains and is a dream tour for all those who want to get very close to the Latemar by mountain bike.

Clockwise, the Latemar massif can easily be mastered by mountain bike beginners as well as families during a full-day tour without any major climbs. The starting point of this unique scenic tour can be the villages of Welschnofen/Nova Levante, Karersee/Carezza or Obereggen.

ATTENTION: Path [519] closed. Diversions via SS 241 to just before Tamion, follow [556] to Soraga and take the cycle path to Predazzo.

Take highway's exit “Bolzano Nord/Val d'Ega”, turn right direction Bolzano/Bozen, after about 0,5 km on roundabout keep left and head towards Val d’Ega (SS 241). Keep driving up to Ponte Nova. At Ponte Nova’s crossroads, turn to the left and continue to Nova Levante (about 20 min. from highway toll booth).

From the car park at the cable car in Welschnofen/Nova Levante (1182 m), take the Laurin I cable car up to the Frommer Hut (1743 m). From the mountain station, follow the gravel path [1A], which after about a kilometre leads briefly onto the main road Nigerstraße/Via Nigra until shortly after the Ochsenhütte Hut the gravel path continues through a breathtaking alpine landscape to the Karerpass/Passo Costalunga (1752 m). Alternatively, and easier, you can follow the asphalted main road (Nigerstraße) from the Frommer Hut to the Karerpass/Passo Costalunga. From the Karerpass/Passo Costalunga the tour now leads down into the Fassa Valley on trail [519] to Moena. Along the Aviso river, the cycle path leads out of the valley to the valley station of the Predazzo-Gardonè cable car. Climb into the gondola and let yourself be transported back up to 1650 m. From the Baita Gardonè Hut, continue with the Gardonè-Passo Feudo chairlift up to the Feudo Pass (2175 m). Now take the path [504] down to the Huts Zischg and Ganischger. Continue on the asphalted trail [505] to the Reiterjoch/Passo Pampeago, then downhill via the Alpine path [9] past the Epircher Laner Hut to Obereggen and enjoy the scenic highlight. After one kilometre along the main road in the direction of Eggen/Ega turn right, pass above the Farm Bewaller and follow the „Templweg“ trail [8] to a trail junction. Turn left onto trail [25A] and then continue on trail [25] until just before the Stadl Alm Hut. Then head downhill along trail [27] to Welschnofen/Nova Levante. Follow the main road for the last stretch to the starting point at the Welschnofen/Nova Levante cable car park.
