    Challenging climb on a steep path. It is not recommended to leave the path because you run the risk of getting stuck or slipping on the scree.

      Route done on Saturday with a full house of hikers and the last stretch before the summit was clogged up so 8 hours of walking including breaks.

      However, up to below the saddle of the brecciaio it is quite quiet and has a spectacular landscape with grassy meadows that contrast with the lunar panorama of the horizon, from that point onwards the route becomes for experts, from 2600m with a view of the Corno Piccolo on the left the route becomes for trekkers with salt in their head and no problems with vertigo, let's be clear, nothing impossible or criminal, but you climb up among sharp rocks with the help of your hands and temporarily putting away your poles, in short, it's not a picnic to do in sneakers as I've personally seen , slippery and slippery terrain with stones on the wall made slimy by years of trekker passages.

      Avoid holidays and weekdays if possible because the uphill and downhill columns force you to take even more dangerous zigzag routes and to take a photo at the summit you need to
