Limestone Plateau

Highlight • Natural Monument

Easy ascent as it is very flat. Best to follow the stone pyramids. Wonderful view from the summit. Be careful in fog, there are deep crevices along the edges.

September 7, 2021:
A very varied walk. The climb to the lake is on a good path, but is at times very steep. The surroundings of the lake are beautiful. Then the route climbs steadily to a pass. Just over the pass you come to an Alpine meadow, then it goes up steeply to the highest point of the route. …

We had hoped for a lot of views, but the low clouds spoiled the day of viewing Lagazuoi, the Tofanen or Sorapis. Too bad. Nevertheless, the round …
