Approach


Start at Rifugio Pian dei Fiacconi (2626m) (like normal route).
This place is accessible via the lift from Fedeia lake or a walk of 2 hours from there.

Alternatively you can start from Alba via the Rifugio Contrin and join the described route later.

Route Description


Use trail 606 to the west down to about 2460m and then climb up to the "Via Ferrata". The climb is completely secured by a fixed rope. The last piece is an easy climb over a snow ridge.

Essential Gear


Take gear for the fixed ropes.
Descent via normal route needs crampons, ice axe and rope.
Beware of thunderstorms because the rock is slightly metallic. (sorry-didn't know a better word to describe this)
