At the break of dawn, you're standing on the edge of Passo San Pellegrino. The air is thin, your boots are laced, and ahead lies five days of raw Dolomitic glory. Welcome to the most thrilling segment of Alta Via 2. No filler, no fluff. This is the heartbeat of the Pale di San Martino, a rugged terrain where the trails are steep, the exposure real, and the rewards sky-high.
This trek is not for the faint-hearted. We’re talking T4 hiking with sections where a via ferrata set is more than just handy—it’s essential. But in return, you’ll get spine-tingling ridgelines, intimate encounters with vertical rock faces, and legendary rifugios where polenta and red wine taste better than ever. Volpi al Mulaz. Treviso. And more. If you're looking for the real deal Dolomites, this is it.
From Passo San Pellegrino (1,913 m), follow trail no. 658 to Passo Valles (2,032 m), then take trail no. 751 over Forcella Venegia and Forcella Venegiotta. After a short exposed section, reach Passo dei Fochet di Focobon (2,291 m) and ascend to Rifugio Volpi al Mulaz (2,571 m) with sweeping views of the Pale di San Martino.
On the way, stop at the peaceful Pradazzo Hut and admire Laghetto di Caladora (2,270 m), a serene alpine lake below Cima del Lago—both offering tranquil moments amidst this challenging trek.
From Rifugio Volpi al Mulaz, follow path no. 703 toward Forcella Margherita. After 500 meters, you'll reach a cabled section—caution is advised due to technical and exposed terrain.
Around 3 km in, a scenic rest spot offers stunning views. Continue along the Farangole Trail, a narrow path with both secured and exposed sections, leading to Passo delle Faràngole at 2,814 meters. Enjoy breathtaking views into the valley before descending toward Rifugio Treviso, nestled peacefully in Val Canali.
From the Cereda Pass, 1361 m, go east along the State Road 347 for about one kilometer to the village of Padreterno, 1302 m, where a small road branches off to the south and then turns east to the small village of Matiùz, at 1201 meters. A sign in Matiùz indicates to the south the continuation of the Alta Via delle Dolomiti n. 2. Once you reach the camping area, go uphill towards the southeast following the signs on the huts. After crossing the little white road, continue towards the south and enter a gorge. At the end of the climb, you will reach the Comedón Pass, 2067 m. After the pass, you enter the Dolomiti Bellunesi National Park.
Now you descend to the west, past a saddle, until you reach Piano della Regina. After crossing the green oasis, you trek uphill and reach the Feltre Bivouac "Walter Bodo", at 1930 m. From the bivouac you continue south on path 801, soon meeting the junction with path n° 806. Remain on path no. 801. Follow the path to Col dei Béchi, at 1960 meters.
Here begins the Trói dei Caserìn (trói = narrow path) that goes west under the walls of Sass de Mura. At an altitude of about 1830 m, the path takes to the south-west, passes through the pastures of Casèrin, and reaches the Pass de Mura, 1867 m. Following the signs to the southwest, you soon reach the Rifugio "Bruno Boz", at 1718 meters.
