Lago Cadagno Lakeside Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

This side of the lake is a great single trail, easy to walk and at the same time a forest nature trail.

Capanna Cadagno

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The new, modern Cadagno hut is very well equipped (showers, etc.), has a rich menu and is located on the well-known MTB routes over the Passo del Sole and the Passo dell'Uomo. The circumnavigation of Lake Cadagnone is also nice (all S1).

Lake Cadagno

Highlight • Lake

The Lago di Cadagno is still an example of a lake without seasonal mixing of the different water layers and is therefore of interest for biological research. The panorama when looking at the lake is also wonderful.

Cadagno di Fuori Alpine Village

Highlight • Settlement

This is really a very small settlement, but it is very idyllic and has a fantastic view. In addition to the original raw ham from here, you can also enjoy other things in the relatively nice (not so nice rustic) restaurant.

May 25, 2026,Lago di Ritom - Lago di Tom - Lago di Cadagno

Wonderful tour to the three lakes. Still a few snowfields and little water in Lago di Ritom. A swim in Lago di Tom was of course a must.
