Access to the starting point:
After crossing the Rateče or Predel border crossing, drive to Trbiz / Tarvisio, then continue on the motorway to Udine. Leave the motorway at Tolmezzo and continue towards Ampezzo and the Passo della Mauria mountain pass. After the pass, the road starts to descend and leads into the Cadore valley, where you turn right towards Auronzo. Shortly before this point, turn right and continue towards the Alpine pass of Passo Monte Croce. Before the road begins to climb in earnest towards the pass, turn left towards the Val Grande valley. Continue along the narrower and mostly asphalted road, which you follow until you reach the parking area of the Rifugio Selvapiana I. Lunelli hut.
Path description:
From the parking lot, continue along the macadam road, which turns into a wide footpath after just a few minutes. The path soon passes out of the forest, where it soon leads to a small bridge over which you cross a clear stream. The path begins to climb more moderately towards the valley headland, which, in addition to numerous peaks, is also decorated with a relatively large waterfall. At the valley head, the marked path turns to the left and then climbs in a few serpentines above the waterfall. Higher up, cross a few small streams over bridges, and then a few minutes' further walking on an occasionally steeper path leads to a marked crossroads. Here you continue to the right and, after a short climb, reach the Rifugio Berti hut.
From the mountain hut, turn right in the direction of 'Passo Monte Croce' and 'Rifugio Sala' and continue your ascent along the initially ascending path, which, after a few minutes' walk, leads you to the next crossroads. This time continue left in the direction Forcella Popera (straight Monte Croce Pass) along a path which climbs steeply for a few metres before flattening out completely. A few minutes of easy walking at the foot of the Belvedere Peak is followed before arriving at the next crossroads.
Continue to the right in the direction of the Belvedere summit and the Rifugio Sala hut (left saddle Forcella Popera), following the path which leads to the summit in less than 5 minutes' further walking.
From the summit, descend gently to the east to join the path that bypasses the summit of Belvedere. Continue towards the summit of Croda Sora i Colosei and the path quickly leads to the mighty ruins of World War I. Just after the ruins, the path climbs steeply and then gradually descends after a good 10 minutes. There is a moderate climb over the slopes, and then the path from the Focella Popera saddle joins us on the left.
Continue to the right, descend a few metres into a small valley, and then climb gently towards an undistinguished notch. Just before the stubble, the marked path turns right and starts to climb steeply towards the top of the mountain, which is reached after about 10 minutes of further walking.

V bistvu sta obe opisani poti enaki. Definitivno je boljše izhodišče za ta izlet Passo di monte croce di Comelico-Kreutzenpass. ki leži dobrih 100viš m više. Pot 124 mimo bivše koče O. Sala in potem na pot 15a nazaj ponuja lepo krožno turo z ogledom neverjetnih Nemških gredbenih podvigov v stenah te gore. S kakšnim namenom je bilo to zgrajeno verjetno niso razumeli niti sami.
