Overview

Campanile di Vallesinella lies in the Central Section of Brenta Group, between Cima Sella and Cima Falkner. It commands Vedretta di Vallesinella Superiore and Vedretta di Vallesinella Inferiore and it is drawn up by Sentiero delle Bocchette " Alfredo Benini ".
There are not much climbing routes. The first climbings were done by Brockelmann and La Quiante in 1904 along the ridge in front of Cima Sella and by von Radio-Radiis in 1905 along the ridge that connects Campanile with Cima Falkner.

To this saddle you can arrive starting from Tuckett Hut m 2278, you go up to Vedretta di Vallesinella Superiore, you go across it and reach the saddle. From here you go on the left up along the ridge with some cautions up to the summit.
