  We present our technique to create a magneto-optical trap for dysprosium
atoms using the narrow-line cooling transition at 626$\,$nm to achieve suitable
conditions for direct loading into an optical dipole trap. The magneto-optical
trap is loaded from an atomic beam via a Zeeman slower using the strongest
atomic transition at 421$\,$nm. With this combination of two cooling
transitions we can trap up to $2.0\cdot10^8$ atoms at temperatures down to 6$\,
\mu$K. This cooling approach is simpler than present work with ultracold
dysprosium and provides similar starting conditions for a transfer to an
optical dipole trap.
