Characteristics

Italy's successful answer to the vulture wall, but with a cozy descent and a waterfall as an encore. A cul-de-sac with a suspension bridge to the lookout point under the cascade provides variety of beautiful photo motifs. Suitable as a family ferrata with larger children with climbing experience. However, there is no emergency exit - once started there is no alternative than to go all the way to the top. Divide your strengths well, this ferrata is becoming more and more demanding upwards.

If the waterfall Radime is flooding, climbing the path is FORBIDDEN and DANGEROUS!

Arrival

From the Plöcken Pass, Tarvisio or Udine to Tolmezzo and from here on the SS52 to Villa Santina. At the western entrance to the town, after Eurospar, park left opposite the cemetery.

Approach

Via the SS52 and left past the cemetery on a path to the entrance at 290m.

Exit

From the exit through a ford over the Radime stream and on the way to a fork in the road: Here you can either go right to the village of Lauco and return to Villa Santina by public transport, or continue along the path parallel to the summit ridge and climb on the mule track called "Troi dai Cretz" to Villa Santina. At the bottom of the village, keep parallel to the state road (behind the stone chip barriers) and go back there starting point at the cemetery.

ATTENTION: In the beginning of 2020 the way back behind the rockfall barriers was blocked due to rockfall. The descent must take place down the street and back through the village (+30 min.).
