TOUR DESCRIPTION

From the top station of the cable car, take the path 695 (“Troi de la Mariota”) along the panoramic ridges.

At “Forcella Vallazza”, there is a steep path – exposed in places – leading towards the “Juribrutto” Peak, where long trenches and outposts from the First World War can be seen.

From the panoramic summit, descend towards “Forcella di Juribrutto” and then return along the same route.

The route follows mixed-use paths also used by mountain bikes and e-bikes. You are therefore advised to keep to the right and always be mindful of other trail users.
