  From Col Rodella, walk down along path no. 529 and then take paths no. 557 and 557-4, also known as "Friedrich August Weg" after the King of Saxony, a keen botanist.
  Shortly after the "Ciaréjoles Pass", the path joins trail no. 580, which ascends to the right in steep curves towards the Dona Pass (2,516 m) and flanks the southern slope of the "Cima di Dona" to reach finally the Antermoia Refuge (2,497 m), where the overnight is planned. This is the heart of the Val di Fassa Dolomites, dominated by the magnificent view of the eastern wall of the Catinaccio d’Antermoia.
