Access to starting point:
On highway A23 exit Carnia and towards the settlement Tolmezzo to the settlement Villa Santina, here towards the settlement Sappada and after 3 km we turn right towards Trava. In Trava we go left in the direction of Stavoli di Tarlessa (mountain asphalt path) to Stavoli di Ajers. Here we leave the car.
Path description:
We start on a wide road, on which cars are driving. To mountain pasture or a little further, we will walk on the path number 166. After an hour and a half of walking, we get to the mountain pasture Malga Claupa, where we can take a rest and also buy sheep cheese. Further footpath leads a little towards the right, and to the top we have a little less than an hour of walking. Last steps before the peak we make more carefully, because of precipices.
From the top, we carefully descend on a footpath number 170. Next follows a walk to a saddle, where joins the path number 157.
We continue left, so that the peak Arvenis is all the time on our left side. The path ahead leads us past the mountain pasture Malga Arveni Alta, all the way to a crossing on a wide mountain road, where we leave the path with sign 157 and we turn left, back in the direction of Malga Claupa.
From here ahead we return to car on an already known path.
On the way: Malga Claupa (1534m), Malga Arvenis Alta (1604m)
