The third stage crosses the northern part of the highlands of Lavarone and Luserna, before roaming the mountain pastures of Vezzena to reach the Cimbrian oasis of Luserna.
From Carbonare (1074 m) the itinerary follows paths with a distinct historic flavour, such as the "SENTIERO DELLA PACE" (path of peace), the "TRAVERSATA DEI FORTI" (tour of the forts) and the "SENTIERO EUROPEO" (European path). In fact, you travel near the remains of the "COMMANDO AUSTRIACO" (Austrian command centre), from where the military operations of the entire highland were co-ordinated, to join the military roads of the Val Carretta and head towards the "CIMITERO DI GUERRA AUSTROUNGARICO" (Austro-Hungarian war cemetery) of Slaghenaufi (1246 m). A forest path penetrates the Lavarone highland and, after getting onto the provincial road no. 133, continues towards Monterovere (1255 m). In front of the Monterovere Hotel the "SENTIERO DELLA PACE" begins for the Baita del Cangi (1370 m) and the path near the Ponte Alto (1468 m). From here you can reach, along a military mule track, the panoramic summit of the Pizzo di Levico (1908 m), where there are the remains of the "FORTE SPITZ VERLE". You pass by the ruins of the "FORTE BUSA VERLE" (1500 m) to reach the Passo Vezzena (1404 m). After crossing the main road, you enter the Veneto region, passing to admire the Malga Basson di Sopra (1491 m), Malga Busa Biseletto (1416 m), Malga Bisele di Sotto (1364 m) and, remaining on the Val Morta road, sign-posted 621B, the ex Malga Croier (1302 m). After rounding the corner of Monte Campo, you descend to Luserna (1333 m). This village represents an ethnic-linguistic island that preserves the Cimbrian culture, the result of German colonization that occurred in the border territory between the Trentino and Veneto regions. The "HAUS VON PRUKK" and the "CENTRO DI DOCUMENTAZIONE" (documentation centre) house many reminders and evidence of the Cimbrian life and culture.
