When people talk about Predazzo at this time, attention is often drawn to the atmosphere of the 2026 Olympics.
But as soon as you move away from the spotlight, another world opens up: the world of the authentic mountains that surround the Games.
The hike from Predazzo to Lago di Cece is a perfect experience for those who want to discover the truest side of the area, immersed in the silence of the Lagorai range. It’s an ideal alternative activity during the Olympics, a chance to experience the mountains slowly and mindfully, walking through the landscape that makes this corner of the Dolomites so special.
How to get to Lago di Cece
Lago di Cece is one of the largest alpine lakes in the Lagorai, and it offers a landscape very different from the classic Dolomites: wide grassy ridges, porphyry rock, and open spaces that create a rare sense of isolation and quiet.
