Embark on the Julius Kugy Three Countries Trail, a moderate hike that takes you through stunning alpine landscapes. You will cover 4.0 miles (6.5 km) and gain 1949 feet (594 metres) in elevation, typically completing the route in about 3 hours and 25 minutes. The trail offers dramatic views of the Mount Coglians group, leading you to the beautiful heart-shaped Lago Volaia, which straddles the border between Italy and Austria. As you hike, you might also pass by Rifugio Lambertenghi-Romanin and observe marmots among the rugged, ochre-colored rock faces.
To prepare for your hike, make sure you wear sturdy trekking boots, as the terrain along the route is varied. Even if you visit during summer, remember to bring windproof jackets and warm layers, because temperatures can drop quickly at higher altitudes. The trail conveniently starts near Rifugio Tolazzi, where you will find parking available for your vehicle.
This route is notable for its unique position right on the border between Italy and Austria, offering a truly international hiking experience. The highlight, Lago Volaia, is a natural wonder that adds to the trail's appeal. Keep an eye out for local wildlife, particularly marmots, which are often seen in the rugged rock formations surrounding the path.
