Valbona lakes and Monte Cengledino

DESCRIPTION
Ring excursion to the three lakes of Valbona and to the top of Monte Cengledino.
The three lakes of Valbona - Lower, Middle and Upper - are located in the southern area of the Adamello Group and the lake area is part of the Adamello Brenta Natural Park. The best view of the lakes is from the crest of Monte Cengledino. The mountain itself is not very beautiful, also because at the top there are showy radio antennas, but the view over the Rendena Valley deserves the effort of its conquest.

ITINERARY
From Malga Cengledino (1660 m) you go up on path 235 arriving at Monte Cengledino (2137 m). Continue for 235 along the ridge up to the Valbona Lakes (2194 m). Now take the 225 and go up to Bocchetta Laghisol (2410 m). You return to the lakes by the same path. Return to the hut following the path 225 passing through the Bait Fontana delle Laste (1919 m).
