    Tolle Tour, wir konnten am 20.8.23 komplett schneefrei durchgehen. Viel Block- und Schottergelände, ab dem Bivacco etwas fester, die Kletterstellen sind alle gut machbar und fest. Haben eine Abseilstelle benutzt.

    Eine absolut lohnende Tour. Die Beschreibung ist sehr detailreich gehalten, stimmt aber genau. Die Orientierung ist durch Markierungen und Trittspuren nicht schwer. Der Visogletscher ist inzwischen abgetaut. Spätestens im Spätsommer ist eine schneefreie Besteigung möglich. Wir hatten am 12.09.22 das Glück bei wokenlosem Himmel am Gipfel zu stehen. Der Blick reicht dann von den Seealpen über die Dauphine, den Mont Blanc bis zum Matterhorn. Traumhaft.

    We hebben deze tocht gelopen in juli 2021. Dank aan Peter voor het plaatsen van deze mooie tocht. Even een paar opmerkingen en aanvullingen. De belangrijkste opmerking: op dag drie klopt de route op de kaart niet. In de beschrijving staat de juiste pas: Giordino, maar op de kaart staat de verkeerde pas (passa del sagnetta) aangegeven Dit is een via ferrata, dus geen wandelpad.
