Stage 7 - Rifugio Tissi to Rifugio Carestiato


Sunday 11th September 2016

14kms, 774m height gain, 941m height loss, 7.5hrs walking

 
Walked to Rifugio Vazzoler (1714m) where we had morning tea and then continued down the road until we reached the 554 track. We separated from Gill and Nic who headed back to Venice at this point. We continued to Forcella Col dell’Orso (1823m). It was initially a belvedere but turned into a hard uphill slog in very humid conditions. Once we had crossed the forcella we had a long traverse across a scree slope before climbing through a meadow to Forcella del Camp (1933m). From here on it was a belvedere across scree slopes and finally a larch wood to pop out at Rifugio Carestiato (1839m) which is perched on an old glacial moraine.
