Hiking
Highest point of the sharp massif, wedged between the Val di Carassino and the Compietto escarpment. The summit clearly emerges from the ridge just north of P. 2298 «Il Sgiu» (no name on the map). It sends out a side ridge towards Olivone, which then branches out, forming the two impassable basins of Dragói and Crespo. The Cima Sgiu towers over the opposite, peculiar crest of the Sosto. From the summit you can enjoy a complete view of the Torrone di Nav-Cima della Negra chain.
