コルノアッレスケールのおすすめランニングルート

In winter, with the right snow conditions, the Punta Sofia cross is a popular destination, ascending from the Balzi dell'Ora or the north gullies, or from the east face (a more complicated option). In other seasons, it's a beautiful hike along the various CAI trails. On clear days, you can admire a breathtaking view.

This pass is very close to Corno alle Scale (dangerous and difficult to reach with a bike on your shoulder) and offers a wonderful view of trail 00.

DARDAGNA waterfalls, very beautiful and easy to reach from the Madonna dell'acero path

Strofinatoio Pass, crossroads between Emilia and Tuscany

The Rifugio Duca degli Abruzzi, at 2,388 m, is located in the heart of the Gran Sasso on the crest of Monte Portella. It is open from June to September, offers typical Abruzzo cuisine and the possibility of overnight stays. It can be reached from Campo Imperatore, and on weekends it is advisable to book by contacting the managers. More information on the website: www.rifugioducadegliabruzzi.it

It marks the border between Emilia-Romagna and Tuscany, if you are lucky you can see a small strip of sea between two mountains on the horizon

If you want to eat at the refuge, I strongly recommend booking in advance. Spectacular polenta.
