Lago di Sorapiss is one of the most beautiful and well-known lakes in the Dolomites.
It owes its fame above all to its very intense emerald blue color which derives from the very fine rock dust brought by the glacier of the same name which, with its melting during the spring and summer, gives life to the lake.
To reach it, we will start from Passo Tre Croci and follow an alternative itinerary to the classic aided path, much more panoramic and at the same time less frequented, which will make our even more exciting excursion.
We will begin to warm up our legs with a slight climb inside a large wood, enjoying the view of the Cristallo and the Popena behind us.
Soon the fun will end and we will find ourselves at the base of the steep scree that will lead us to Forcella Marcuoira (2307 m) where we will enjoy a well-deserved break with a view of the Sorapiss group and on the nearby Tre Cime di Lavaredo. Once we have recharged the batteries, we will climb over the saddle heading towards a wide grassy ridge and, at the end of a panoramic rocky ledge, we will begin to glimpse our destination in the distance.
A rapid descent submerged by an expanse of dwarf pines will soon take us to the shores of our alpine lake set like a gem in the mountain, overlooked by the iconic Dito of God: a spectacle of nature that is truly unique and magical that absolutely deserves to be seen with your own eyes at least once.
A sufficient level of training and habit of walking in the mountains is required.

Hi, it's Jade!
I grew up between Vittorio Veneto, the town where I was born, and Chies, a small town in the mountains of Alpago, my mother's homeland where my grandparents still live.
A lifelong lover of sports and nature, I am a fitness instructor at the gym and have been mountaineering, trail running, and cycling both road and mountain biking for several years.
The mountains and I have always sought each other out even though unfortunately life has kept us apart for some time, first during my years of study in Venice where I majored in linguistic and cultural mediation with a Chinese-English major and later when work led me to move for long periods to Asia, first to Shanghai and then to Hong Kong.
It was upon my return to Italy that I began to really cultivate my passion for the outdoors, getting closer and closer to the mountains until I fell madly in love with them.
And it was on the wave of this overwhelming love that after working for a few years in local companies as a foreign salesperson, I decided to change my life and enroll in the Veneto Mountain Guides College's Medium Mountain Accompanies course, which allowed me to turn this great passion of mine into a profession.
For me, mountains are joy, serenity, curiosity, energy, effort, relief, wonder, sharing, reflection, discovery, adventure, freedom.
To put it in one word, it's LIFE....and I look forward to taking you with me to safely experience this extraordinary environment that will be able to give you unique emotions that you will carry in your heart forever!
