Passo Pordoi - Col di Rosc

Access to starting point:
Access from Gorenjska: From Rateče or Predel we cross the border to Trbiž / Tarvisio and then we continue 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.
In Cortina d'Ampezzo then we follow the signs for Alpine mountain pass Passo di Falzarego. This ascending road we then follow to the mentioned mountain pass. On the mountain pass, we come to a crossroad, where we continue on the left road in the direction of Marmolada and settlement Arabba (right Alta Badia). The road ahead is for quite some time descending, and then it brings us to a crossroad, where we continue right in the direction of the mountain pass Passo Pordoi (left Marmolada). Relatively wide and the ascending road we follow all the way to the mentioned mountain pass, where we park on a large parking lot.
From Primorska: We drive on the highway towards Venice / Benetke / Venezia. At town Portogruaro we leave the highway towards Venice and continue right on the highway towards Pordenone. At the next highway junction near Conegliano, we continue right towards Belluno. Near Belluno the highway ends and at the next crossroads we continue in the direction of Cortina d'Ampezzo. Further, we follow the description above.

Path description:
From the parking lot on the mountain pass, we continue towards the southeast past the mountain hut Savoia behind which we will notice signposts. Signposts point us on a footpath towards the mountain hut Rifugio Fredarola. A wide path at first runs towards the southeast and it brings us to the chapel. Here the path turns to the right and is then slightly ascending below the eastern slopes of the peak Sas Bece. From the path, we have otherwise very nice view mainly on the nearby peaks in the mountain group Sella. The path then soon brings us to a saddle on the north side of the peak Sas Bece from where also a view towards Marmolada opens up.
On the saddle where there is a crossing, we continue straight, left on a ski slope leads the path towards the mountain hut Rifugio Sass Bece. The path from the saddle at first crosses grassy slopes towards the south and then brings us to a macadam road.
We continue right on a macadam road which starts slightly descending, and to the left leads the path towards the mountain hut Rifugio Sass Bece and mountain hut Rifugio Fredarola. After a short descent, we continue slightly left and then follows only a short walk to the mountain hut Rifugio Belvedere, which can be seen from the path for quite some time.
At the mountain hut, we continue on a macadam road, that runs on a ski slope and it quickly brings us to a crossroad. Right downwards the road branches off towards the settlement Pecol, and we continue straight on panoramic road which runs towards the summit Col di Rosc where there is the upper station of the cable car. To the top only a short ascent follows.
