Farmhouses trail - Tru dles viles

La Villa/La Villa, Badia, Dolomites Region Alta Badia
from center

In Alta Badia you encounter the oldest culture in South Tyrol and during your excursions it is easy to meet traces of typical cultural assets such as the "viles", the ancient rural settlements with their classic Ladin architecture.

This leisurely circuit leads through meadows and forests slightly above the valley floor, along some of the typical Ladin farmsteads.

The height difference of this walk is small, so the route is recommended even for less experienced and trained hikers.

Itinerary
From La Villa (bus stop in front of the Tourist Office), follow the signs for "Tru dles viles – Badia". Head east, descending to the Gran Ega stream, and after crossing the small bridge, climb left towards the Ćianins farmhouse. Continue north on the paved road, passing the Craciorara and Fistì farms until you reach the junction with the road to Castalta. Turn left and follow the gently descending road to the next fork. Here, take the road to the right towards the Sotrù and Oies farms, where you can visit the birthplace of Saint Joseph Freinademetz.

Keep going in the same direction, following the "Tru dles viles – Badia" signs to reach the Frëinademez and Rainé farms. After passing through a wooded area, you’ll come to another junction. From here, descend to the left along the farms of Alfarëi, Ruac, Fussè, and Coz until you reach San Leonardo/Badia (1h 30min). To return to La Villa, you can walk down to Badia/Pedraces and take the bus.

If you prefer to continue walking, take the road on the left behind the church of San Leonardo, and follow the "Tru dles viles – La Villa" signs as the path gently climbs. After passing the Anvì farm, follow the road to the right towards the Adan farm, where signs for La Villa will lead you towards the stream. From here, continue to Altin, and then ascend back to the village center.
