A long and physically demanding hike, mainly through woods, but while offering glimpses of splendid views. Several steep ascents and descents on good and well-marked trails. From Plätzwiese, you descend via the spectacular Val dei Canope to Cimabanche. After 1 km along a path flanking the road, climb through Val de Gotres towards Forcella Lerosa, a meadow plateau surrounded by beautiful mountain peaks. After a steep forested descent begin the final climb through the lovely Val Salataand to reach your destination, the Rifugio Sennes, located at an altitude of 2100m.

Turn-by-turn directions

These maps and routes are designed to be used in conjunction with our traditional documentation. We have recently embarked on a conversion initiative to bring the two elements together, and this itinerary will be covered in due course.

In the meantime, using the two elements alongside each other should go a long way to ensure you have a safe, enjoyable and problem free day.
