In early summer, if you are lucky enough, you can admire blooming alpine roses painting the slopes with their bright, pink colours and filling the air with their fragrances. In summer, the small alpine lake is still partially covered with ice and snow, which leads to a low water temperature. The refreshing water is particularly suitable for footbaths and short Kneipp baths. This hike gives you also the unique opportunity of passing by the Rifugio Sette Selle, a true gem on the Lagorai situated nearby Lago di Erdemolo.
Starting point of this hike is the paid car park near the hiking paths in Palù del Fersina in the village of Frotten/Vrottn. At the car park we take path no. 343 to Rifugio Sette Selle. After a break, we return on the same path until we have to take path no. 324 leading directly to Lago di Erdemolo. From here we take path 325 back to the car park.
The only refreshment area of this itinerary is Rifugio Sette Selle.
