    Safety information

    The route of ascent is usually passable in mid-winter, although it is better to wait for the snowpack to settle. The route of descent, however, requires absolutely stable snow conditions (the first stretch has a slope of over 40°).

    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.

    Roadbook

    Following the snow-covered road you get to Rifugio Trivena (altitude 1650m). From here, along the right-hand side of the valley (at the mouth of the Val Canevaza), you cross a small bridge and meet a trail that climbs up to Corno del Fus (the Taiade path). You go around this rocky outcrop on the right and then back to the left via a wide saddle (Sella del Fus). You have now reached the beautiful slopes of the summit, which are never too steep but require careful assessment. Going uphill to the south-west, you get a view of the summit: now head towards an obvious rocky formation that resembles the head of a Setter to get to the Passo dei Contrabbandieri (Smugglers’ Pass at 2650m). From here, pass under the steep peak, going uphill as far as a ridge 50 metres below the summit. Note that this last exposed stretch should be tackled carrying your skis (crampons are useful).
    On the descent, (a difficult alternative route, only for experienced skiers with stable snow!) go down carrying your skis – an ice axe and crampons are useful – for a short stretch along the north ridge. When you can, return to the northern side, descending along several narrow gullies through rocky outcrops, before putting on your skis. Then follow the beautiful valley that leads into the Valle del Vescovo and takes you to the Piana di Redont further down and the path that leads back to Rifugio Trivena.
