Malga Ora - Description

The Malga Ora track winds its way towards the slopes of the Corno Bianco Peak. From the malga you can connect to the tracks that lead to Passo Oclini and to Pietralba.
Compared to the Campiol and Torbiera tracks, the Malga Ora is more technical and demanding, also due to its length. Along the way, the damage caused by the Vaia storm (October 2018) is clearly visible. The beautiful and luxuriant woods that stretched between the Lavazè Pass and the Oclini Pass have given way to sinuous and white hills that offer a wide view of an exciting Dolomite scenery.

Directions
