Access to starting point:
Over the border crossing Rateče we drive to Trbiž / Tarvisio, where we go on a highway in the direction of Videm / Udine. We leave the highway at exit Tolmezzo and we follow the road to the mentioned settlement. From Tolmezzo we continue in the direction of the settlement Ampezzo and mountain pass Passo della Mauria. The road then starts descending and brings us into a valley Cadore, where we continue right (left Belluno and Cortina d'Ampezzo) in the direction of the settlement Auronzo. After few additional km of driving, we come to the next bigger crossroad, where we go right in the direction of the settlement Misurina (left mountain pass Tre Croci). From here we descend on the road to a bigger crossroad where we continue left towards Cortina d'Ampezzo (right Austria). From the mentioned crossroad, we continue for approximately 10 km towards Cortina d'Ampezzo, and then in a sharp left turn we go right on the road towards the mountain hut Rifugio Ra Stua. Narrow asphalt road we follow all the way to a larger parking lot at the mountain hut.
Path description:
From the mountain hut Rifugio Ra Stua we continue on a macadam road which is closed for traffic. Already immediately at the beginning footpath towards the notch Forcella Lerosa and valley Gotres branches off to the right. A little later also the path towards the valley Valbones and towards the bivouac Helbig Dall'Oglio branches off to the right.
We still continue on a gently sloping macadam road which for some time still runs by pastures, and then it brings us into the forest. Further for some time we walk through the forest by the stream Boite, and then we come again on grassy slopes where there is also a crossroad.
The road towards the mountain hut Rifugio Fodara Vedla branches off to the left, and we continue straight on a macadam road towards the mountain hut Rifugio Sennes. Already after few ten meters, we come to another crossing. This time footpath towards the lake Lago di Foses and mountain hut Rifugio Biella (Seekofelhütte) branches off to the right.
We also this time continue on the road which runs through the valley Val Salata and starts ascending a little steeper. Later road turns a little left, and footpath branches off straight, which later again joins the road. Higher the trees are becoming rarer and from the road nice views are more frequently opening up on the nearby peaks, where especially stands out Croda Rossa. Later road crosses the gate and from nature park Dolomites d'Ampezzo brings us in nature park Fanes Sennes Braies.
Left then soon road towards the mountain hut Rifugio Pederü branches off, and we continue straight on a macadam road towards the mountain hut Rifugio Sennes. After a short ascent, the road brings us to another crossroad. This time road towards the mountain hut Rifugio Biella branches off to the right, and we again continue straight. The road then becomes less steep and by grassy slopes soon brings us to the hut Rifugio Sennes.
