Starting from the Rifugio Roccoli Lorla hut, we begin our long walk through a fir forest, initially with little slope, passing by the Zocca della Nebbia huts, Piazza d’Arogno and Piazza di Sopra. Here the route becomes steeper, climbing a slope that leads to Porta dei Merli 2124 m; a traverse equipped with a rope (not necessary on dry ground) leads to the Silvestri – Ca’ de Legn bivouac at 2146 m, where we can take a moment’s rest.
From here the final ascent begins, the last 400 m on a rather steep slope. Some short sections are equipped with fixed ropes, which are useful in the last short rocky section to reach the summit. We descend on the same route as on the outward journey.
WARNING: this hike is for hikers with a good level of fitness and confidence in the mountains. If in doubt, contact the guide
