Stage 10 - Rifugio Bianchet to La Pissa


Wednesday 14th September 2016

6kms, 800m height loss, 1.75hrs walking

 Left the rifugio at 7.25am to descend the final 800m of the AV1 and catch the bus back to civilization. The descent was on a fairly steep track, then the 503 and finally the bitumen to the bus stop at La Pissa. Caught the 9.40 bus to Belluno to pick up our AV1 badges from the tourist office and then caught 2 further buses to Cortina and then Dobbiaco where our excess gear was stored in a locker at the youth hostel.

Stayed the night at the Dobbiaco youth hostel and had a little shopping spree on minerals and fossils from the best rock shop we have ever seen.

    Congrats on another fine achievement! You must have extremely refined scree scrambling skills by now. Fantastic photos. Thanks for sharing the walk. I have thoroughly enjoyed your blog. When are you back?
    Love Dale
    PS Realise I am a little behind. Just now found the chance to sit down and read the blog.
