Alto Crinale

This is one of the most characteristic routes in our area with most of the trail being outside the tree line.

The departure is from Rifugio Cavone, a short asphalt stretch and after the tunnel that passes above the Tomba slope we find on the left the forestry trail (CAI 329) that, passing by Rifugio Le Malghe(1640 meters), takes us takes us to the junction for CAI 401 trail up to Passo della Riva (1454 meters), here we take the CAI 445 trail on the left that after a fun single track becomes a forest road up to Capanno Tassoni (1370 meters), from here we climb along the forest road up to Passo della Croce Arcana (elevation 1669). Continue climbing until you take the path on the left that goes up to the summit where there are many antennas and repeaters and then take the single track on the ridge (CAI 00) that will take us up to Lago Scaffaiolo (1787 meters).

To return to the starting point, you can descend along trail 333 (gps track) or along the forest road that serves the Lake Scaffaiolo refuge.
