Corlo Lake Tour

The Corlo Lake tour is a loop itinerary of about 14 km, with 250 m of elevation gain, that takes in natural landscapes and historical evidence along one of the most distinctive basins in the Belluno area.

Located between Valsugana and Monte Grappa, Lake Corlo originates from the damming of the Cismon stream inside a deep canyon, taking on an elongated shape reminiscent of a small Alpine fjord. The route allows you to explore the entire basin, alternating stretches along the water with passages through the forest and on scenic trails.

Three bridges are encountered along the itinerary, allowing you to cross the lake and change sides: the Ponte della Vittoria, also known as the suspension bridge, the Ponte della Bassane and the Ponte de Polo, from which there is a view of the hamlet of Rocca, partly submerged with the creation of the reservoir in 1954.

The route also leads to the ancient hamlets that are now uninhabited and to the tunnels of the old railway line between Cismon and Feltre, placing the hike in a context that combines nature and memory of the area.

The rock walls descend steeply toward the water, creating a varied and evocative environment that accompanies the entire itinerary, which can be hiked in half a day and is suitable for hikers with basic training.
