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 in the direction of the settlement Belluno. Main road, that runs through the valley of river Piava we follow only to the settlement Domegge di Cadore. In the mentioned settlement we turn left downwards and then we follow the signs for mountain hut Rifugio Padova and Rifugio Cercena. The road after descent crosses the river Piava, after that soon starts ascending. The road which leads towards the mentioned huts is quite steep and very narrow. When we come to a crossroad near the mountain hut Rifugio Cercena signposts point us sharply left and to the hut follows only 50 meters of steep ascent. We park on a large parking lot at the mountain hut.
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 the settlement Auronzo and mountain pass Passo Mauria. We follow this road to the settlement Domegge di Cadore. In the mentioned settlement we turn right downwards and then we follow the signs for mountain hut Rifugio Padova and Rifugio Cercena. The road after descent crosses the river Piava, after that soon starts ascending. The road which leads towards the mentioned huts is quite steep and very narrow. When we come to a crossroad near the mountain hut Rifugio Cercena signposts point us sharply left and to the hut follows only 50 meters of steep ascent. We park on a large parking lot at the mountain hut.
Path description:
At the end of the parking lot, we go left on a footpath following the signs »Biv. Montanel«. The path quickly brings us into the forest and then in ascent crosses slopes towards the north all the way to a crossing by mountain pasture Dalego.
At the marked crossing we continue sharply right and follow the signs for bivouac Montanel. The path further starts ascending a little steeper towards the southeast. The path here in ascent crosses relatively steep slopes and still run through the forest. Despite the forest occasionally through the trees nice views open up towards Dolomites. The path then turns to the left and soon brings us to another marked crossing.
Left downwards leads the path towards the mountain hut Rifugio Eremo dei Romiti, and we continue right towards the bivouac Montanel. The path further becomes slightly less steep and out of the forest brings us on little steeper slopes covered with dwarf pines and larches. Here also very beautiful views open up towards the north. The path for a short time still crosses steep slopes and then turns to the right and is for quite some time ascending through the valley Val Moni on the eastern side of the peak Colle dell'Elma. The path at first runs on the right side of the valley below the steep skalnatim slopes mentioned summit. Further path runs more on middle of the valley and is ascending through dwarf pines and larch forest. Later, the path again turns to the right and it brings us to the ridge on the southeastern side of the peak Colle dell'Elma.
Here the path turns to the left and trees are becoming a little rarer so that from the path increasingly beautiful views are opening up on the west side where peaks Civetta, Pelmo and Antelao stand out. Further, the path runs mostly by dwarf pines and by rare larches. Such a path runs all the way to a grassy plain on which there are two bivouacs. Smaller is permanently open, bigger is locked.
In case if we use map for orientation be careful, because on some maps the bivouac is marked on wrong location.
At the bivouac where there are also signposts we continue slightly to the left following the signs »Cima Montanel, Cima Herberg«. The path then leads us through a short lane of larch forest and dwarf pines and soon brings us into a valley on the northern side of peaks Crodon di Scodavacca and Cima Herberg. The path here runs on the left side of the valley with a nice view towards precipitous ridge of the mentioned peaks and on ample scree below them. We continue ascending on the left side of the valley and when terrain flattens a little path brings us to a crossing.
Left leads the path towards the summit Cima Montanel, and we continue right towards the mountain hut Rifugio Padova where also sign on rock points us to. From the crossing, the path is slightly ascending and soon turns to the right towards the scree. The footpath here is a little poorly visible therefore we have to pay attention to red dots and cairns, which mark path. Next follows a short ascent on the scree and then blazes point us to the right on the ledge.
Ahead on the scree and then through the gully you get to the summit Cima Herberg. So we go on the ledge on which we then for some time cross an exposed slope towards the southwest. The ledge is otherwise quite wide but some caution is still needed, because there is a lot of gravel on the path. The path on the ledge then brings us into a gully between the peaks Cima Herberg and Crodon di Scodavacca. The path runs on the left edge of gully and to the notch Forcella di Crodon only a short ascent follows.
On the notch, we leave the path which is marked with red dots and we go right towards the summit Crodon di Scodavacca. At first, we are ascending on a slightly crumbly gravel terrain by the ridge and when the slope becomes on our left less steep we go left on a slope partly covered with grass. For orientation we also get some help from the few cairns. Here we continue right and we ascend towards the ridge. To reach the main peak we have to continue right on the ridge. Only a short ascent follows on a panoramic ridge to the top. On the ridge on the left side are situated also some secondary peaks, which on the top also have cairns.
We can descend on the ascent route or from the notch Forcella di Crodon we continue on a marked path on the south side and we descend towards the mountain hut Rifugio Padova. In this case, we have from the mountain hut Rifugio Padova to the starting point at the mountain hut Rifugio Cercena a little less than an hour of walking on the road. A considerable part of the path towards the mountain hut Rifugio Padova runs also through overgrown dwarf pines.
On the way: Fienili Dalego (1315m), Bivacco Montanel (2048m), Forcella di Crodon (2340m)
