Variant of the third stage of the "Dolomiti di Brenta Trek" route, from Rifugio Graffer to Malga Flavona.  

moderate
Distance 8 km
3:15 h
224 m
623 m

Those who started the trek from Lago di Tovel has now the possibility to shorten the loop and quickly reach the Lake in just 3 hours walk.
This variant cuts the DBT tour halfway from east to west and avoids the southern part of the Brenta Dolomites as well as the via ferrata.
