Access to starting point:
From Nova Gorica, we drive to Italy and we drive forward on the highway to the settlement Portogruaro, where at the highway junction we turn in the direction of the settlement Belluno. We follow the highway to exit Belluno, after the settlement Belluno we follow the road in the direction of the settlement Feltre and then towards the settlement Transacqua and mountain pass Passo Rolle. A little before the mountain pass, we will on the right side of the road notice a larger parking lot at mountain pasture Malga Fosse on which we park.
Path description:
From the starting point on the mountain pasture Malga Fosse we continue towards the southeast following the signs »Rifugio Rosetta, Col Verde«. The path at the beginning slightly descends on grassy slopes, after that mostly in a gentle ascent crosses the slopes below the summit Cimon della Pala. The path named Sentiero dei Finanzieri later ascends a little steeper and brings us on a less steep grassy slopes.
The path further starts slightly descending and it brings us to a marked crossing. Right downwards leads the path towards the ski slope Col Verde, left upwards there is the beginning of the climbing path Via Ferrata Bolver Lugli, and we continue straight following the signs »Rif. Rosetta«.
Further, the path for quite some time crosses slopes below the walls of the peak Croda della Pala and then again brings us to a marked crossing. Right downwards leads the path towards the settlement San Martino, and we continue straight following the signs »Rif. Rosetta«. After a short crossing, the path again brings us to the signposts by the path. Here from the right also joins one path from the settlement San Martino, and left upwards poorly visible path branches off, which leads directly towards the saddle Passo Bettega.
At the crossing, we continue straight in the direction of the mountain hut Rosetta. After that, the path soon turns to the right and crosses a slope below the cable car. Further, the path starts a little steeper ascending, and on some spots is also slightly exposed. Ascent in spite of that doesn't cause bigger problems, because the path is very well secured, on exposed spots also with the fence. Here we are mostly ascending in zig-zags, and from the path, we have all the time a nice view towards the nearby peak Rosetta and other peaks above the valley Val Cismon. Higher, the path turns left towards the northeast and is becoming gradually less steep. Such a path then brings us on a saddle Passo di Rosetta where there is also a marked crossing.
To the left, there is only few minutes of easy walking to the mountain hut Rosetta, and we continue right towards the upper station of the cable car and summit Rosetta. A wide path from the saddle starts ascending on a relatively gentle rocky slope and we soon come to the upper station of the cableway.
Here we continue slightly left and we are still ascending on very panoramic path towards the summit. On this part is well beaten path marked with numerous cairns. When we get closer to the ridge path turns to the right and a short little steeper ascent follows to the top.
On the way: Passo di Rosetta (2572m)
