Rosengarten - Passos Scallete and Antermoia

This walk took us back to the Rosengarten (Catinnacio) massif. The previous day had been a rest day which we had spent visiting Cavalese and watching the Woodcutters festival in Molina di Fiemme. The minibus took us to Pera, just north of Pozza. Here we caught a shuttle bus which took us up to the Rifugio Gardeccia (1949m). From the hut we followed path 583 which climbed steeply up, with short sections of rock scrambling and via ferrata to the Passo di Scaletti (2348m). This was a very stark area with impressive rocky peaks. The path climbed up to Passo di Laura (2700m) before descending down to Valon de Antermoa where we had lunch.
After lunch we climbed up again to the Passo Antermoia (2726m) where we met a German walking group and held an impromptu sing song - Simon impressed up by being able to sing in German - which earned us brownie points. We descended down a scree path to the Rifugio Principe and then down the path to Vajolet.
Instead of going to the main hut we had a drink on the terrace of the Rifugio Preuss before descending to the Refugiuo Gardeccia and the Pera shuttle bus.
