    A classic for the locals who appreciate it in every season, including winter! The route mostly takes place on SAT trails, marked with signs and well-maintained throughout their length. 

    Author’s recommendation

    Once at the top, it is worth treating yourself to a coffee comfortably on the panoramic terrace of the Panorama Hotel Penegal.

    Safety information

    As you can imagine, the passability of routes in a mountain environment is strictly linked to current conditions and therefore depends on natural phenomena, environmental changes, and weather conditions. For this reason, the information contained in this sheet could have undergone changes. Before starting, check the status of the path by contacting the refuge managers on your route, alpine guides, natural park visitor centers, and tourist offices.

    Tips and suggestions

    CAI / SAT trail difficulty classification: http://www.visittrentino.info/legenda-difficolta-cai

    Roadbook

    Difficulty: E (hiking trail)

    From the parking lot, a dirt road (sign 508) starts, which through the woods leads in about 40 minutes of walking to the pastures near the Malga di Malosco. Just before the hut, the itinerary follows sign 508 eastward on a tractor-accessible road, up to the clearing below the summit; from here you quickly reach the Penegal Belvedere. From the large terrace adjacent to Hotel Serafino, you can enjoy one of the most typical panoramas of the Val di Non. Leaving the Belvedere, follow the descent along sign 500-Sentiero Italia and at the first fork take the dirt road heading SW towards Malga Malosco (continuing on path 500 would lead to Passo la Forcolana). From the hut, return to the Regole along the same route as the ascent.
