Ombrico - Malga Granuda

Access to starting point:
Over the border crossing Rateče or Predel we drive to Trbiž / Tarvisio, and then we continue driving on the old road towards Videm / Udine. This road we follow to the settlement Cucco. We follow the main road to the turn-off for settlement Ombrico. Here we leave the main road and we go left on a narrower road which at first runs slightly downwards. The road over a bridge crosses a wide riverbed of river Fiuma Fella and then it turns to the right and joins the cycling path. Further, we drive on a narrow road which at the same time is also a cycling path. This road we follow to a small bridge after which we come to a crossroad. We go left on an ascending road which leads us in the direction towards the viaduct of the highway. We park on an appropriate place by the road near the viaduct.

Path description:
We continue on the road to the other side of the viaduct where there is a crossroad. We go straight on a cart track by which there is a sign which prohibits further driving. The cart track starts ascending and in the initial part we have some nice views towards the north where we can see few peaks above the valley Kanalska dolina. After few turns, the cart track brings us into the forest through which we are then for quite some time ascending in hairpin turns. Higher, the cart track brings us on more eastern slopes where deeply below us we can hear the stream Rio Granuda Grande. Here occasionally also some view opens up towards Dve špici. We then follow the cart track all the way to the mountain pasture Malga Granuda. When we come on the mountain pasture we slightly ascend, and at the right turn we come to a crossing where we also join the marked path.
To the left leads the path 604 towards Dve špici, and we continue right on a cart track and only a short ascent follows to shepherd cottages on the mountain pasture.
