This easy snowshoe hike goes along the southern edge of the Puez-Odle Nature Park (UNESCO World Heritage Site), away from the ski slopes on the famous Sellaronda circuit. On a lovely hike through meadows and woods covered in deep snow, you can discover the natural scenery of the Dolomites from an entirely new perspective.

Before heading out on the hike check the weather forecast and the avalanche report http://www.arpa.veneto.it/neve_valanghe/it/pdf/dolomiti_nevevalanghe.pdf.

Follow the SS244 Val Badia road towards Corvara and continue on road SS37 to Colfosco.

Head up from Colfosco to the Rifugio Jimmy hut on the Plans-Frara gondola lift.
Then take the clearly signposted trail no. 8 through the wintry pine forests down to Colfosco. The route goes gently downhill, first to the Rifugio Forcelles hut (2,094 m) and then on to the Stella Alpina hut, from where you walk southwards back to Colfosco through a wide valley.
