Lago di Sorapis

Lago di Sorapis is one of the Dolomites’ most photographed day hikes: roughly 12 km round trip from Passo Tre Croci to a vivid alpine lake at about 1,925 m. Expect forest walking, exposed ledges with cables, and steady uphill — busy in peak season but still worth the effort if you plan an early start.

Lee hiked it as a Dolomites add-on after Alta Via 1. Use the complete guide for parking, timing and the trickier cable sections, then explore other Italy/Dolomites content if you’re building a longer trip.

Trail access is free — use the Trek Cost Calculator for day-hike extras and the Packing List Builder for a Dolomites day-hike kit with poles and a rain shell.
