Starts at the top of Monte Altissimo, near Rifugio Damiano Chiesa. The first part is wider and very rocky, but somehow faster than the lower one. After the first cross of Busatte to Altissimo, it becomes more technical and steep, with lots of roots around. This section is also more fragmented, as you'll have to speed down whenever you cross the street.
The scenery on the upper part is amazing.

Access Info

At the end of Busatte to Altissimo, turn right on the rocky trail that goes towards the lake.

Abbiamo percorso solo la parte finale da quota 1600mt, neve e bagnato ma resta godibile e abbastanza divertente.

Alcuni passaggi vanno studiati. La roccia smossa porterebbe a prendere un minimo di velocità di galleggiamento, ma la pendenza è importante...

      Vista mozzafiato! Resto cosi cosi….. fatto o una volta e mai più. Tutto scassato e nulla di più. Non capisco dove gli altri hanno trovato un S4 ma cmq. Secondo me S2-3.

      La parte alta dall'altissimo è di livello S3 abbondante ma solo il primo tratto, poi diventa a tratti alternati S2/S3 con un paio di passaggi quasi S4

      This might be my favorite trail, well OK I have a few favorites but this is right up there.

      Doing this with the Coast trail is about 10km with 2000 meters decent. Its fun but quite technical.

      Top part from the rifuge is really rocky.

      Agree that calling this a black diamond is under rating it especially compared to the Skull trail.

      With the Coast trail theres lots of different types of sections. Coast ends with slippery off camber.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
