Access to the starting point:
First, drive to Cortina d'Ampezzo (you can get here via Border crossing Rateče or Predel to Trbiž / Tarvisio and then take the motorway towards Udine to the Tolmezzo exit. From Tolmezzo, follow the road towards Ampezzo and the Passo della Mauria mountain pass. The road then descends and leads to a crossroads where you turn left (possibly right) towards Cortina d'Ampezzo. At all subsequent junctions, follow the signs for Cortina d'Ampezzo.
In Cortina d'Ampezzo, follow the signs for the Passo di Falzarego Alpine pass. At the pass, you reach a crossroads where you follow the road on the left towards Marmolada and the village of Arabba (Alta Badia on the right). The road descends for some time before reaching a crossroads where you continue to the right towards the Passo Pordoi (Marmolada on the left). Follow the relatively wide and ascending road until you reach the pass, where you park in a large parking lot.
Access from Primorska: Take the motorway towards Padua, but only as far as the motorway junction, where you continue towards Veneto and Belluno. Near Belluno, the motorway ends and we follow the road towards Belluno, where we turn right at a major junction towards Agordo. From there, follow the signs for Arabba and the Passo Pordoi Alpine pass, which is the starting point of our tour.
Path description:
From the parking lot, first cross the road carefully and then take route 627 (towards Piz Boe), which first climbs a little steeply over a grassy hillside, then flattens out and leads to a rockier world. The path then turns slightly to the left and starts climbing steeply again. After a few minutes of further walking, we finally leave the grassy slopes and the path turns into a rough world, over which we climb on a fairly wide path. The path once again lies higher up and leads to a marked crossroads.
Continue straight ahead on route 627 towards huts Rifugio Forcella Pordoi and Rifugio Boe (Ferrata C. Piazzetta on the right). The path continues on an increasingly steep scree slope, which takes some energy. This path, which is also exposed to falling stones in the upper part, is then followed all the way to the Rifugio Forcella Pordoi mountain hut, which is the only one to be reached once you have climbed to the top of the aforementioned scree.
