A long, officially rated difficult circuit from Passo Sella via paths 557, 527 and 526, passing a chain of rifugi around the Sassolungo massif.
This is a point-to-point route, so plan the return: retrace your steps or check local buses; 750 m of climbing makes this a big physical day, for conditioned dogs only, with turn-back discipline.
Mapped start suggestion, Passo Sella. Check current access before travelling.
Do not rely on potential water locations being available or drinkable. Carry enough for the full walk.
Use the live forecast, check local access information and be ready for changing mountain conditions.
