Walk to the Rifugio Fos-Ce - Description

Discover the green views of the San Valentino plateau, in the Monte Baldo Local Nature Park
The Rifugio Fos-Ce is located on the edge of a short panoramic plateau at the feet of the southern face of the Monte Altissimo of Nago. Easy to reach by car, it is also the arrival of an interesting excursion on foot that starts in San Valentino.

Directions

  • Start

    San Valentino (1328m)

    After having parked, stay on the SP3. It takes you to the western side of the town, where you can see the signs indicating the direction for the “Cimitero di Guerra” [War Cemetery], and trail 654 towards “Pianaz, Rifugio Fos-Ce”. The road leads downhill and passes “Cimitero di Guerra” locality.
    Continuing along the same trail, you go a bit further downhill, along the road, until “Pianaz” locality, at an altitude of 1195 m. Now the trail heads uphill, and continues through the vegetation. You continue along the trail marked 654 and, at about 1320 m asl, the forest road ends. Here you take the path (which is still marked 654) which climbs, on a steeper slope now, to the mountain hut.
    You return by following the same path or walking along road SP3 to the starting point.
