      | Crossing
the Brenta Dolomites, Trentino:  from Molveno to Madonna di Campiglio via Bocca
di A
classic route across the Brenta Group which winds through the Brenta, Massodi
and Seghe valleys. This itinerary in the opposite direction is advisable if you
wish to start high up from the Grostč Pass and go to the  Tuckett Refuge
and then on to the Brentei Refuge. Up until the Croz Altissimo Refuge the
itinerary is the same as the one described in the preceding section. From the
Croz Altissimo Refuge it takes 30 minutes to get to the Selvata Refuge (1,630
        metres). An alternative route to get from Molveno to this lovely refuge is to
take path no. 322, or the Donini route which begins at the Bar Ciclamino in
        Pontesel, both of which go via the Malga Andalo Refuge (1,351 m.). From the
Selvata Refuge you carry on along path no. 319 and after about 50 minutes,
having passed two springs, you come to the former Baita Massodi alpine hut
(1,985 m.).
 Crossing fields amid rhododenron and the last mountain pines you
come to the Laghet depression; from here the peaks are so lovely that the view
over the Sfulmini, Campanil Basso and Brenta Alta Group is quite breath-taking.
The silence is broken now and again by the whirring noise of the Pedrotti Refuge
cable way which stands out against the rocks, now close, now far away. In about
4 – 4˝ hours you come to the Pedrotti Refuge (2,491 m.).
 After the Bocca di
Brenta pass, at 2,552 metres the highest point on the itinerary, you begin to go
down towards the hanging glacier, with the start of the Via delle Bocchette way
on your left. Continue along path no. 318 and in less than an hour you come to
the Alberto and Maria Brentei Refuge (marvellous views over the Cima Tosa and
Crozzon del Brenta peaks).
 From here carry on down the Brenta Valley, past the
Bogani tunnel, to get to the Casinei Refuge (1,825 m., 1 hour 15 minutes). From
here continue along path no. 317 to the Vallesinella Refuge (1,513 m., 50
        minutes) and then take the road into Madonna di Campiglio (about 4 km).
