Summary:
A nice little addition to the classic Trodo.
Access:
Approach (2 h):
Trodo has been done from the very top, but only becomes interesting from a height of 780m. So it's best to walk up the path west of the canyon and then look for tracks down the 40-50 degree slope.
Tour (1 h 30):
The interesting part is just from 780m, there are 2 parts with about 4 pitches each; some smaller jumps also possible.
Return (1 h):
Superiore only makes sense if you also do the inferiore, or otherwise you can combine Sassaltorio and Superiore.
