The Translagorai is an alpine high- altitude hiking trail that leads in around 80 km and several daily stages through the Lagorai chain in Trentino .

general description

Translagorai is the ridge crossing of the Lagorai chain in its entire east-west orientation. The path is not specially signposted and runs through the Lagorai on the trail network maintained by the Trentiner Alpenverein (SAT). An inspection can take place in both directions. The starting and ending points are usually the Panarotta above Levico Terme in the Valsugana and the Passo Rolle, which connects the Fiemme Valley with the Primör . Other possible starting or ending points are the Passo Manghen and the Rifugio Sette Selle . The Panarotta - Passo Rolle route takes between five and six days. The Translagorai can be interrupted at any time. The Rifugio Cauriol , the Rifugio Refavaie in Vanoi or the Passo Manghen can be used as emergency exits, all of which can be reached by car and are on the route with the exception of the Rifugio Refavaie.

The difficulty with the ascent of the Translagorai, which is also one of the main attractions, is due to the few infrastructures that can be found along the route. With the Rifugio Sette Selle and the Rifugio Cauriol, there are only two managed refuges as stage destinations along the route. Depending on the stage planning, you can also spend the night at Passo Manghen and in the Rifugio Malga Conseria. Otherwise you have to get by with self-catering huts, usually simple bivouac huts or alpine pastures with bivouac facilities. This means that the appropriate equipment including food must be carried with you for several days. On the way, provisions can only be bought to a limited extent in the refuges or in the alpine pastures, if they are managed. There is enough drinking water along the route. After snowy winters, snow fields must always be expected on the north side. Due to the lack of shelters, you usually only meet a few hikers along the route. The relative isolation is certainly one of the attractions of the tour, but at the same time it is a risk factor that should not be underestimated.

Stages

The route from west to east is shown in six stages. A total of about 5000 vertical meters are covered in the ascent and 4500 vertical meters in the descent.
