Never more on sunday!The ordinary route from south to the Cima Grande di Lavaredo is really not difficult.
There is only a step of 3° degree of the traditonial scale of Welzenbach.
But in the summertime there is a problem, and it's name is "probable crowding".
Books generally don't speak about this, but everyone wont to climb this way during summertime must know it.
Expecially by saturdays and sundays you must attend more or less long rows to the points of pause and in the vicinities of the passages key.
So, be patient!
If you will not be patient, you will have to become nervous like I describe in this story by images!An history by images
