Given its altitude, this route is often cold; moreover, due to its exposure, the rock is very slippery.

From Rimasco, follow the signs for Rima San Giuseppe. Once you reach the hamlet of San Giuseppe, stop at the bridge and leave the first car there. With the second car, drive back about 50 meters until you find a small uphill road; take it and follow it until it becomes a dirt road. Park here.

Walk back a short distance along the road until you find a nice forest section, where it’s easy to descend toward the stream by following faint tracks.

Enter the easy streambed, where you’ll find a few small natural slides and nice pools, then continue walking until you reach a concrete dam, which you bypass on the left. Just below, on the right bank, you’ll find the first rappel (C12). Immediately after, on the left bank, there’s a C10 with some rope friction, followed by a 5-meter slide with a possible rappel (though the anchor on the right side is very difficult to reach, C8). Continue walking for about 10 minutes until you reach C15, then walk again until you come out into the village. Total time: about 2 hours.
