Introduction:
Beautiful and not excessively well-known mountain of the Tre Cime di Lavaredo group, which stands alone dominating the Rienza Valley and the Rinbon Valley. From the road that goes up to the Auronzo Refuge, it shows two neighboring horns, not particularly high and covered with pines. During the ascent and on the terrace of the summit, grassy and strewn with pine trees, numerous walkways and trenches dating back to the Great War are evident.
Access:
Just beyond the Malga (restaurant), reachable by car from the exit of the Tre Cime road following a short dirt road, which descends to the stream and leads to a large parking lot, a mule track branches off to the left and climbs into the woods.
Description of the climb:
In constant but not particularly steep ascent, you reach the panoramic grassy pass of Forcella de l´Arghena (altitude 2087 m), between the Croda on the left and the Col di Mezzo on the right. Evident remains of trenches, and boundary stone between the Tyrol and the Serenissima Republic. Traversing to the left in the direction of the left elevation, you oblique between the pines on the side of the Croda, to go up a short scree and, continuing on the path, skirt a ridge and move towards the top of the Croda. On the left (tab.) Junction for a short aided ledge, which leads to an interesting war tunnel. Going up still to the right, you pass a short rocky band (not equipped, 10 m of I) and among the pines you reach the wide cap.
