Access to starting point:
First, we drive to Cortina d'Ampezzo (to here possible over a border crossing Rateče or Predel to Trbiž / Tarvisio and then on a highway in the direction of Videm / Udine to exit Tolmezzo. From Tolmezzo we follow the road in the direction of village Ampezzo and mountain pass Passo Mauria. The road then descends and it brings us to a crossroad, where we continue left (possible also right) in the direction of Cortina d'Ampezzo. At all next crossroads, we follow the signs for Cortina d'Ampezzo. Or from Primorska side, where we drive on a highway in the direction of Trst / Trieste. Further, we drive on Italian highway in the direction of Padova, but only to a highway junction, where we continue in the direction of Veneto and Belluno. Near Belluno the highway ends, and at the next crossroads we continue in the direction of Cortina d'Ampezzo and then we follow the signs for Alpine mountain pass Passo di Falzarego. This ascending road we then follow to a large parking lot on the mentioned mountain pass.
Path description:
Only few ten meters away from the parking lot at the bottom station of the cable car on Lagazuoi Piccolo we will notice signs for the tunnel Lagazuoi. The path at first leads on a worse for traffic closed macadam road (road for the purpose of a ski slope), which after a short ascent brings us to the spot, where signs for tunnel point us slightly to the left. We continue the ascent on a wide mountain path, which is ascending parallel with the road which we just left. A moderately steep path then from a lane of dwarf pines brings us on the scree, from which beautiful views are opening up mainly towards the south. Well maintained path, after a little less than an hour of walking, it brings us to a crossing, where we continue right on normal mountain path (left path through the tunnel).
The path then crosses slopes below the steep mountain walls of Lagazuoi Piccolo (danger of falling stones) and a little further through torrent well passes on the scree between the mentioned and the neighbouring peak named Cima Falzarego. Here the path turns a little to the left and on a moderately steep slope ascends on a panoramic saddle forcella Travenanzes, where there is a crossing.
We continue left in the direction of the mountain hut Lagazuoi on a slightly ascending path, which crosses steep slopes, which are protected against avalanches. Next follows a short descent and the path brings us on the next saddle forcella Lagazuoi, where we continue straight upwards (right path 20a and 20b). The path ahead in zig-zags starts moderately ascending on a relatively steep slope by which we notice numerous remains from the first world war. The path higher brings us to the upper station of the cableway and only few meters behind that to the mountain hut Lagazuoi.
From the mountain hut, we continue on a well-beaten path, which on the upper ridge soon brings us on an ample and panoramic peak.
On the way: Forcella Travenanzes (2507m), Forcella Lagazuoi (2573m), Rifugio Lagazuoi (2750m)
