Access:

Approach (1 h 30):

Tour (5 h):
Eher Flache tour mit einigen hohen Sprungmöglichkeiten. Laufpassage zum inferiore hat zum Teil auch schön ausschauende Felsen und Becken (bis Monte della Valle zumindest, danach ist 1km Geröll bis um statt von dem Inferiore).
Rather flat tour with some high possible jumps. The walking passage to the Inferiore also has some nice looking rocks and pools (at least up to Monte della Valle, then there is 1km of scree up to the Inferiore).

Return (5 min):
