ヴォドディカドーレの峡谷・トップ7

The Giaron de la Fopa is a gigantic scree flow that extends from the imposing Spiz di Mezzodì, representing one of the largest and most majestic scree slopes in the entire Dolomite range. The trail winds along this impressive slope, offering a unique and evocative panorama, characterized by a wild and grandiose environment that will leave you breathless. A unique experience for mountain lovers and high-altitude trekking enthusiasts.

Challenging trail, but very beautiful. Personally I would recommend doing it by going up.

an extremely rewarding path but one that requires attention and caution

One of the most impressive screes of the Dolomites, which extends over a thousand meters of altitude, formed by the accumulation of debris formed by the natural disintegration of the rocks The Giaron de la Fopa is sadly famous for having fueled the solid transport of the Pramper torrent, in a wave of water, earth and stones, which devastated the town of Forno di Zoldo in the flood of 1966

Stunning trail in the middle of the woods with arrival at Malga Federa. In winter and with a lot of snow crampons are absolutely necessary, many sections can be icy; if there is deep snow the trail could be hidden but there are several signs on the trees. In these conditions a bit of experience and a lot of caution are necessary, some short passages a bit exposed and an easy section equipped.

In a short time and with some exciting passages you reach a gem: the Cascata delle Pile.

Trail taken today, 10/12/2024 after days of rain. It cannot be said that the trail is disused in my opinion. It is still an equipped trail that goes into a narrow gorge, along a stream, so caution is required. There are pieces of cord and metal brackets at critical points and a small wooden bridge; you have to be very careful, as the rocks are worn by erosion and very slippery and there may be debris carried by the water that clutters the path. After the rains the stream also swells... but you can get there with due caution That said: the Pile waterfall, spectacular and 25 meters high, consists of a gorge carved out over time by the Oten stream, which originates in the Antelao glaciers and flows into the Centro Cadore lake.

Today's route, 10/12/24. The path is not disused. It is still an equipped path that winds through a narrow gorge. There are pieces of metal cord and brackets at critical points and you need to be careful, especially after heavy rains as the rocks are very slippery and the stream becomes a bit impetuous
