Discover Almazzago

Almazzago offers a range of starting points for planning your trip: the route of the Cammino di Carlo Magno, trails to Malghetto di Almazzago, and the Chapel of San Rocco in the historic centre.

Hiking Trails and Routes

The tenth stage of the Cammino di Carlo Magno leads to Daolasa and then through Almazzago before reaching Dimaro. From Daolasa, the Cammino reaches Almazzago via an uphill trail through the forest. The forest climb marks the approach to the village; from there, the stage continues to Dimaro.

An easy route leads from the area by the cable car’s valley station in Folgarida to Malghetto di Almazzago. The Malghetto is a viewpoint overlooking Dimaro and the entire lower Val di Sole. The view therefore takes in both a named village and the wider valley area.

Another route to the Malghetto starts in Marilleva 1400. After crossing a small valley, the trail follows a narrow, unpaved path at first, passing through dense coniferous forests before reaching its destination. The route from Folgarida is easy; the route from Marilleva is characterised by the valley crossing, the trail surface and the forest.

The snowshoe route Al Malghetto di Almazzago runs from Folgarida via Malghetto di Almazzago to Marilleva 1400. The Malghetto is an intermediate point on the route, not its final destination. The Cammino and the routes to the Malghetto therefore differ in the features described: the Cammino’s stages and forest climb, and the views and different trail descriptions at the Malghetto.

Conditions in the mountains can change; check them before setting out.

Chapel and Village Character

The Chapel of San Rocco, dedicated to Saint Roch, is in the historic centre of Almazzago. It was built between 1511 and 1513 following a vow made by the residents in connection with the plague of 1510. The dates distinguish the reason for its construction from the building period: the plague is associated with 1510, while the chapel was built between 1511 and 1513.

Liberdon lies in the lower part of Almazzago, towards the River Noce. It consists of a small group of traditional rural buildings, now converted into homes. Thus, alongside the chapel, the location of this hamlet and its repurposed buildings are also part of Almazzago’s character.

Getting Around Almazzago

In the upper part of Almazzago, a road leads to Folgarida. The road to Costa Rotian is a landmark; at the second bend, a road branches off to the right, paved at first and then unpaved. The route via Costa Rotian and the turn-off at the second bend provide specific points of reference.
