Passo del Barbacan is on the left of the peak of the same name. It develops along pastures and then reaches the gully which narrows up to the entrance to the pass (2,598 m). The last part of the pass is equipped with fixed ropes that help the climbing of its steep wall.

The Passo del Barbacan With a view towards Novate mezola or the Rifugio Gianetti. The last part is connected with a bit of climbing, but can also be done without a chain. The view compensates!
