Start
Vernera hut (1.677 m)
From Vernera hut follow the forest southwards that conduces at the small church of the Italin Alpine trooper, for then continuing until Camorè locality (you should encounter some huts). Don't get confused from a forest road that turn left but follow the principal road until Camorè (about 1,7Km from the start). Now leave the forest road for a path on the left with indication "Malga Vasoni Alti e Malga Fregasoga" path n° 468; the path continues steady in the spruce wood. Arrived at some indication that propose again "Malga Vasoni Alti e Rifugio Tonini" turn left, leaving 468 path, for an evident path with "Cimatti e monte Cogne" indication; the chart is attacked on a big tree and not on the wooden pole together with the others. Following this path in short we are in Cimatti locality out of the wood. Now, on n°469 path and with "passo Mirafiori e monte Cogne" indications, continue on a pleasant slope until Frattoni mountain and then until Monte Cogne top. Reaching the summit through the great dorsal between Altopiano di Pinè and Valfloriana is a very exiting experience. Once on the top, we just have to turn 360 degrees on ourselves to admire the hundreds of mountain that sorround us; from the closest, i.e. Fregasoga mountain, Pala delle Buse and Rujoch to the farthest like Marmolada with its magnificent rocky south wall, about 1000 m high, the Ortles-Cevedale group and Brenta grup. The view on the plateau is breathtaking too, with it's two lakes that refelct the sky. The way back takes place on the same route. -
