This walk was to the
Latemar Massif, an example of typical Dolomite scenery.
The minibus took us to Predazzo where we took the cable car and chair
lift
to Passo Feudo (2150m).
From the pass we walked up path 516 to the
Rifugio Torre di Pisa (2671m).
This was a small mountain hut where we stopped for drinks. Stopping for drinks was a regular feature of
the holiday.
Most of the walk was now through very impressive rock scenery - however Dennis managed to miss the very
impressive arch by chatting away. We walked out as far as the Forcella dei
Campanili, making a small diversion to the Madonna della Neve high on a pinnacle. At the Forcella we
took a break watching people start on one of the
via Ferrata routes.
We retraced our steps a short distance before taking the path to the Gammstallscharte (2560m).
From the col we descended down a steep rock and scree path to meet path 22, which took us back to the
Passo Feudo and the chair lift.
