We start this tour at the valley station of the Latemar cable car in Predazzo which takes us up to the Baita Gardoné mountain hut. By chairlift, we continue to Passo Feudo, saving 1,100 m of ascent. Single track no. 521 leads us to the Malga Zischg and Rif. Ganischgeralm mountain huts, above Passo di Pampeago. The downhill trail via the Malga Epircher Laner mountain hut to Obereggen is asphalted - alternatively, we can follow the gravel path no. 9.
From Obereggen, the forest paths no. 9 and 8 (gravel roads) lead slightly uphill to the famous Lago di Carezza (Karersee) via the Bewaller farm. The uphill section ends 4 km further at Passo di Costalunga (Karerpass) between the Catinaccio and Latemar massifs. At the junction with the Passo Nigra road starts a paved pass road which we follow for a short section.
Just after the pass, path no. 519 branches off on the right and takes us to Moena via the Malga Secine mountain hut. A gravelled downhill section through the forest on the eastern slope of Mt Latemar follows. Past the Malga Runcac mountain hut, we reach the village in the Val di Fassa, which is 550 metres lower than the hut. The cycle track following the course of the Rio Avisio, proceeds slightly downhill, taking us back to our starting point in Predazzo.
