Access to starting point:
From Rateče or Predel we cross the border to Trbiž / Tarvisio and then on the 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 right towards Auronzo. Further, we follow the signs for mountain pass Tre Croci.
Path description:
From the mountain pass Tre Croci we go right on a narrow at first asphalt road (path number 203). At the beginning of the road there are also signposts, which point us on the mentioned road. The asphalt quickly ends and we continue past a gate and start ascending on a macadam road which is closed for traffic. The road which runs through the forest then soon brings us to a crossing where the path towards the notch Forcella del Cristallo branches off to the right, and we still continue on the forest road. When we come out of the forest from the left joins the path from a parking lot at the ski slope Monte Cristallo. Further, we are for some time ascending on the road, after that signposts point us to the right on a footpath.
The path starts ascending a little steeper and increasingly beautiful views start to open up on surrounding peaks. The path still in ascent crosses slopes towards the northwest and runs mostly by rare dwarf pines. Higher, the path brings us to a saddle Sonforcia where we again join the macadam road.
On the saddle, we continue right on the road which we then follow all the way to the hut Son Forca.
From the mountain hut, we continue towards a cable car. Signposts at the bottom station of a cable car then point us on a ski slope below the cableway. The path further all the time runs on a ski slope below the cableway and starts quite steeply ascending. In the last part, the path is ascending on steep scree, which brings us to the upper cableway station. From here we then only walk to the mountain hut.
