Very beautiful and relatively short climb. The route is very steep from the reservoir to the saddle in front of the summit. Path composed of terrain that was initially wooded (presence of roots) and then rocky, at times quite exposed.
From the summit you can descend from the same ascent route (1h 30' to go up, 1h to go down), or by extending a little you can go down to Malga Cugola, and then return to Passo Oclini (from the summit to the pass 3h 30 ' approximately, for a total of approximately 5 hours of excursion).
The climb is practicable even in the event of light snowfall, but be careful not to lose the traces of the path, which are easily hidden.

The summit of the Schwarzhorn is really a very worthwhile destination. The panoramic view alone makes up for the effort of the climb!😊

Especially in winter when there is snow a nice, steep, appealing tour along one degree. You don't notice much of the mountain pines and scree in winter, and you even make better progress than in summer. But you should at least have Grödel with you. It's actually a shame that the Schwarzhorn doesn't enjoy the Weisshorn's attention.
A good hour of ascent and a lot less if you pull straight down over the snow.
