On the tracks of an ancient swampy plain

Winter walk from Campitello to Canazei (no. 63)

From the centre of Campitello, descend along Strèda de Pènt de Sera to reach the Ischia sports area. From the cable car car park, follow the path across the meadow towards the woods, then continue along the walkway at the woodland edge. Shortly afterwards, the Soreghes plain opens up on your left. At the fork, keep right and follow the well-marked Cercenà forest road, which is flat and shaded.
You reach Canazei on Strèda de Cercenà and, after passing the football pitch, turn left at the crossroads. Continue along Strèda del Ciuch, which runs alongside the Gries meadows in its final stretch. From here, the Soronch path leads you back to Campitello on the opposite side.
After leaving Canazei behind, the path enters the woods for about 400 metres, offering a pleasant stretch through the forest. Finally, follow the Avisio riverbank to the first houses of Campitello. Take Strèda Veia to return to the square where you started.

If you prefer to start from Canazei, follow the directions for walk no. 70.
