"Campolongo" Pass (near "Laguscei" Hotel)
Turn-by-turn directions
From Passo Campolongo (to the left of Hotel Laguscei) take the prepared path that starts to the left, initially climbing for about 50 metres at the side of the piste and then turning left following the prepared path. After a few metres you will find the sign to follow which is 26A. Always follow the beaten track 26A and then 26 direction Cherz. After a few kilometres you will come to a crossroads and from here you can choose whether to continue along the marked trail to the Cherz plateau or turn left onto path no. 3 which leads to Incisa. We recommend walking on the plateau in fresh snow with snowshoes.
Back on the same way.
