    The ascent to the summit is recommended for the more fit as it takes place on a steep rocky path. Along the route, you will encounter Malga Stierbergalm, an excellent stop for a typical menu or even just a simple glass of milk!

    Safety information

    Please note that the practicability of the itineraries in a mountain environment is strictly linked to the contingent conditions and is therefore influenced by natural phenomena, environmental changes and weather conditions. For this reason, the information contained in this page may have changed. Before leaving for a tour, make sure the path you will approach is still accessible by contacting the owner of the mountain hut, the alpine guides or the visitor centres of the nature parks, the info offices of the local tourist board.

    Tips and suggestions

    Roadbook

    Difficulty: EE (experienced hikers)

    From the parking lot, follow sign number 19 which, via a forest road alternated with woodland trail, reaches Malga Stierbergalm (1850 m).

    Now the route continues through the beautiful pastures of the Maddalene mountain range. Leaving the hut on the left, climb to the right along the rocky path following sign number 12 until you reach, on a flat section of trail at 2100 m elevation, the overlying Sentiero Bonacossa number 133. At this point, some attention is needed. Do not follow path number 133 but continue ascending along path number 12 which indicates the way to the summit of Monte Ometto (Mandlspitz) 2395 m. The ascent is recommended for the more fit, as it is a steep and difficult path. In a short time, the route gains altitude by covering the last 300 m of vertical drop. Reaching the summit with its cross rewards all effort. From here, you can enjoy an incomparable view over the entire Val di Non up to Lake Santa Giustina.

    The return route retraces the same path as the ascent.
