Where to start

Start here, Compaccio/Compatsch, Alpe di Siusi cable car mountain station

Bring your own water

Do not rely on potential water locations being available or drinkable. Carry enough for the full walk.

Rifugi & refreshment

Good to know

Part of the route crosses a cattle pasture with calves present, keep dogs close. Return the way you came, or take the Almbus back from Saltria to Compaccio. Exact water-source and rifugio km-marks are approximate, not GPS-verified.
