Starting point for the tour is Sauris di Sopra. Oberkofel is the highest peak in the ridge that runs between the Festons and Rioda saddles. There is no marked path to it, but it is accessible either along the ridge starting from Festons saddle, or from path CAI 206 which starts a little before Festons saddle and leads under the ridge towards Rioda saddle (at the suitable spot we climb right onto the ridge and continue left along it to the summit) or from Rioda saddle. We climbed to it along the ridge via Monte Festons, descended towards Rioda saddle and shortly before it down steep grass slopes to path 206, by which we returned to upper Sauris. The weather favoured us, as the forecasted cold didn't come, the wind spared us too. There is little snow in these areas too, the path is bare in many places, but in drifts you sink up to your knees. Extremely pleasant trip, nay pleasant, almost fairytale-like

Turbo, from the pictures it's not clear if you were on Monte Oberkofel or on Monte Rioda, but anyway the highest peak is the latter (2043), Oberkofel is 18 m lower.
Otherwise I suggest the ridge from Monte Morgenleit to Monte Palone, where you bag 3 two-thousanders and 2 almost two-thousanders in a few hours and return under the peaks as you described. As starting point I recommend Sauris, although you can get by car to the Festons pasture (1800 m), but the road there is extremely steep and narrow. You don't want to meet another car there.

Actually, I was on both Oberkofel and Rioda. True, I was mistaken, Rioda is higher
