Ski Touring Difficult
This route can start from Refuge Gnifetti or Mantova or from the other side from Quintino Sella refuge. This line is a high mountain traverse and can be quite challenging if conditions are not optimal. Often the Passo del Naso could present ice and you'll have to navigate complicate glaciers filled with crevasses.
Technical gear required! Ice axe, crampons, rope (40m) as well as crevasse rescue kit and ice screws.
Difficult
Serious gradient of 30-38 degrees where a real risk of slipping exists.
