In the months of October and November, when autumn comes into full swing, the Altopiano del Sole bursts into a riot of warm and vibrant shades, with a color palette that ranges from yellow to red to brown, painting postcard-worthy scenes.

Nature is dyed in the colors of foliage, and the landscapes take on a kaleidoscopic charm that captivates the gaze of both residents and visitors.

Discovering the most colourful places on the Altopiano del Sole is an excellent idea for a magical weekend, amidst forests of maple, chestnut and beech trees of a thousand shades.

In this new in-depth article, we have compiled a list of some of the most striking places to admire the autumn foliage on the Altopiano del Sole for you.

1. PRAVE

Let’s start our ranking with the location “Prave”: a unique place in its own right, accessible either by a detour along the Borno-Paline road or through a more challenging route starting from Angolo Terme.

A small abode where time seems to stand still, and where you will find only simple yet well-designed cabins, perfectly integrated into the unspoiled atmosphere of the area.

Nature reigns supreme here, and when the leaves of the rowan and fir trees don their autumn attire, one witnesses a spectacular display of colors that should not be missed.

2. PAT

The location Pat in Ossimo is another destination to admire the foliage on the Altopiano del Sole. Here, nature and history meet in the Asinino-Anvòia Archaeological Park, a site that preserves ceremonial stones dating back to the Copper Age.

The thick forests and wide expanses of Pat are the main features of the landscape, where carpets of deciduous leaves create a truly special effect.

Not only is the Pat area known for its historical value and beautiful views, but also for the presence of numerous chestnut trees, from which it is possible to pluck the generous fruit throughout the autumn period.

3. CROCE DI SALVEN

At Croce di Salven, autumn explodes in all its power.

On the road that leads from Borno to Paline and the nearby Val di Scalve, breathtaking views unfold in every direction, from the mountains of the Altopiano del Sole to the majestic Presolana.

As you pass through the Park of the Doline, in the Giovetto Natural Reserve, or along the road leading to Val Sorda, you can find true corners of paradise, where the foliage transforms and enhances the grand design of Mother Nature.

4. LAKE MORO

Lago Moro in Angolo Terme is a certainty at any time of the year.

Walking along the path that runs around the lake’s perimeter, you can encounter views of extraordinary beauty, surrounded by chestnut forests where you can admire the reflection of the foliage in the ripples of the water.

5. THE VINE ROAD (MALEGNO – SUCINVA)

Reaching the village of Lozio via the old road that climbs the Lanico valley from Malegno to Sucinva is an excellent idea for hiking enthusiasts in search of breathtaking scenery.

A 5.5-kilometre itinerary, which can be covered in about 2.5 hours, surrounded by plants and unspoilt landscapes.

This road is known as “the road of the vines” due to the presence of the locality ‘”Le icc” in the area located just below Sucinva: a well-sunny spot characterized by gentle slopes that once allowed for vine cultivation.

We look forward to an unforgettable weekend strolling through the foliage on the Altopiano del Sole.
