The connecting route between Passo Oclini and Lavazè leads almost uninterruptedly downhill on gentle forest roads, offering an ideal extension and/or integration to other routes. The 207 meters of downhill altitude difference are distributed over 4 kilometers. The Base Line, however, can be followed in the opposite direction as well, as the trail is signposted in both directions.

The ascent to the summit is an ideal trip for young and old.
A wonderful experience for families with children who want to experience the thrill of reaching a summit perhaps for the first time.
The path, which in the first part is very evident among the pasture, starts near the Berghotel Jochgrimm, just below the Hotel Schwarzhorn.
In about an hour´s ascent you reach the summit of Corno Bianco, from where you enjoy a remarkable panorama: the Latemar, Catinaccio and Sciliar frame the valleys below where the Pietralba Sanctuary stands out.
Impressive and spectacular is the erosion gorge, formed by the Bletterbach, which cuts across the entire north side of the mountain, laying bare the entire geological succession dating back 18,000 years.
For the return, take the same path as the way out, following the indications for Oclini.
Corno Bianco is the ideal peak to admire the sunrise or sunset over the Dolomites.
It will be an unforgettable experience!

The Malga Ora trail initially winds its way downhill along a forest road, continuing on the flat section of the sprint track, which is ideal for an intense speed workout.

It is the higher of the two peaks of Oclini, and so the climb is a tad more strenuous than the Corno Bianco, but the views from the summit certainly make up for it.
When you reach the summit, which is a very wide peak with a large cross, you can look out over the slope that overlooks Val di Fiemme. On the southern horizon is an exceptional view of the Lagorai chain and far to the southeast, of the Pale di S. Martino group. The one proposed here does not require special athletic and mountaineering training but steady pace and attention (the first section is rocky and some sections are a bit exposed).

A comfortable and easy path suitable just for everyone allows you to reach one of the gastronomic jewels of Passo Oclini: the Malga Ora.
The malga offers a small playground where children can have fun and pet the tender alpacas in the corral next door.
It´s certainly recommended to stop and savor the carefully prepared traditional dishes, from a platter of local cold cuts and sausages to a plate of canederli to the traditional South Tyrolean pancake: strauben.

A long walk through beautiful forests leads us from Passo Oclini to one of the oldest and most important sanctuaries in South Tyrol: the Pietralba Sanctuary (or Maria Weißenstein).

From Mölten, the sun plateau of Tschögglberg, the Mölten cable car takes you in four minutes down to the Etschtal.
