Hiking around the 1,570 metres high Mount Cislon in the Monte Corno Nature Park, enjoying beautiful panoramic views
Image gallery: Hike from Trodena to the Malga Cislon hut
We start our hiking tour in the centre of Trodena and follow trail no. 1, which leads on an asphalted and later very steep road towards the Cislon Mountain Hut. After about 45 minutes, we finally arrive at the Cislon Mountain Hut, which is surrounded by beautiful green meadows and offers great views on the Bassa Atesina and the Mendola ridge. (The hut was rebuilt and enlarged in 2016, in the picture above the new building - table reservation by calling +39 0471 1889832).
After a short rest at the mountain hut (Cisloner Alm), we follow trail no. 2, which leads us first towards north, later towards east, through the forest. At a sharp right bend, the narrow trail no. 2A branches off to Mount Cucul (Hochwand). This section leads along the steep cliffs of the Monte Cucul and is not accessible for prams. In fact, this is the most difficult section of our hiking tour.
However, it offers great views on the area around Aldino and Nova Ponente as well as on Mt. Mendola. Finally, a broad paved road leads us back to Trodena, where our circular hike ends.
