Baffelan

Baffelan is a summit in the Venetian Prealps with an elevation of 1,793 meters (5,885 feet) and part of the Sengio Alto mountain range in northern Italy. The peak rises as a steep rocky formation above green pastures and forested slopes.

The mountain historically served as a natural boundary between different regions, shaping settlement patterns and movement across the landscape for centuries. This geographical role left a lasting mark on how the surrounding valleys and communities developed.

The mountain communities nearby practice alpine traditions that change with the seasons and shape life at this elevation. Visitors can see this connection to the mountain reflected in local customs and how people use the landscape.

The Via Comune del Baffelan trail leads hikers toward the summit, with mountain hut Malga Campogrosso offering a rest point along the way. Allow plenty of time for the climb and descent, especially when weather conditions change quickly in the mountains.

The summit offers wide views across surrounding valleys and neighboring peaks that shift notably with the seasons and weather conditions. On clear days, the structure of the entire mountain range becomes distinctly visible from the top.
