Start
Destination
Turn-by-turn directions
Ascent: from Malga Vallazza head up left (East) through sparse woodland. After a long northbound traverse you reach the tree line and the base of a large, steep slope. Climb up to the area “Lastei of Juribrutto”. It’s the only stretch where care is needed for potential of avalanche, after a heavy snowfall or wind-affected snow accumulations.Now, the area is open and wide, with steeper and more gentle slopes. Keep the direction along the right mountain ridge, or follow the large central channel which lead to the summit.
Descent: by the same route

Equipment
For all ski-mountaineering activities, the proper apparel is strongly recommended. Skiers must bear in mind that temperatures can dip quickly and garments should also be suitable for snowy conditions (such as waterproof Gore-Tex jackets). Furthermore, gloves, cap, sun glasses and sun cream should also form part of every off-piste skier’s basic gear.
It’s COMPULSORY to carry with you an avalanche rescue kit consisting of avalanche transceiver, probe and shovel (this is also available for rent). In the case of hard snow cover or ice, ski crampons are recommended.
