ボルカディカドーレの峡谷・トップ7

an extremely rewarding path but one that requires attention and caution

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

Rather steep and rocky stretch a few hundred meters long. Suitable footwear and sure-footedness required. Be careful in the rain

Beautiful waterfall just a few minutes walk from the Rifugio Capanna degli Alpini. It is approached via the Tabacchi equipped path, now largely abandoned and which must be followed carefully.

Short path, now in a state of disuse, which allows you to approach the beautiful Pile waterfall. It can be followed without particular difficulties but you need to be very careful as the structures placed to assist progression have in fact been abandoned.
