This circuit is called Valsugana because it reaches the extreme north of the Accrocoro on the edge of the Valsugana in a completely unspoilt area. The first section takes the "Ortigara" track up to the Mount Forno fork. Here, it continues to the right and covers a very gradual long slope until it reaches the saddle (1619m). Then there is an easy descent down a ridge to the turning (1703m) where the main 'red' itinerary passes by. You then bear left towards Malga Moline into depressions, up humps and down a few slopes. At about 200m from the refuge you bear left towards Piazzale del Lozze which is fairly easy to reach up a small valley. Leave the Ortigara track on the left and take the right-hand route that crosses the Piazzale and climbs sharply north until it reaches the Pra della Porta depression within sight of Mount Caldiera. Travel 1.5 km along the beautiful flat valley to Porta Molina within sight of Valsugana, 2000m of precipices with the villages of Strigno, Borgo Valsugana, etc. in the valley and the Dolomites in the background. Go back along the track a little and take the left-hand track at the fork. A very gradual descent with one or two steeper but short sections leads to Malga Moline. Go past it on the left as indicated on the signs and go down some slopes and a pair of hairpin bends to reach the Buso del Diavolo depression. Go up slightly, then come down again, another couple of hairpin bends, a few bends and you reach the Fossetta fork. Keep to the left and continue going downhill. When you reach the rocks of Poggiolo Cattagno a long slope begins (8km) which leads first to Malga Mandriele and then to Malga Fiara and Campomuletto. From there, go down to the main Campomulo refuge.
