Hiking
The Cresta di Capradossa forms the northern buttress of Pizzo d'Uccello. It is a decidedly spectacular route: you walk on a thin ridge with breathtaking views of Monte Pisanino, the Lunigiana, the ridge of the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines. A real aerial ride in the shadow of the vertiginous north face of Pizzo d'uccello
The route is reserved for experienced and trained hikers and requires some simple rock climbing steps. Some sections of the Capradossa are particularly exposed.

Alternative route to the summit of Pizzo d'uccello. Somewhat exposed in some places.
