Rifugio Sorgenti del Piave - Rifugio Calvi

Access to the starting point:
From the Trbiž/Tarvisio-Viedem/Udine motorway, take the Tolmezzo exit and follow the road towards the town. Near Tolmezzo, leave the main road leading to the Pso di Croce Carnico Pass/Plockenpass and head towards Villa Santina in Ampezzo. In Villa Santina, at the roundabout, go straight ahead following the signs Raveo, Rigolato. Follow this road until Cima Sapadda, where you turn right towards the summit of Monte Peralba. Follow the rather narrow and steep road to the large parking lot under the mighty Peralba. Park in the lower parking lot, where you will see signs for the Calvi hut (the hut at the source of the Piave is a little further on, about 500 m).

Path description:
From the parking lot, signs for the Calvi hut direct you to a dirt road that begins a moderate climb eastwards. The road soon crosses a short lane of sparse wodland and then climbs a level higher in a few serpentines. From a fairly scenic road, a marked footpath then branches off to the right, which can be followed to continue the ascent.
If you continue on the footpath and start early enough, you may see a few marmots along the way. In this case, you will reach the Calvi hut in less than an hour.
If you continue on the road, it starts to climb steeply (less steeply than the footpath, of course) and after about an hour's walk from the starting point, it leads you to the Calvi hut, which is situated on a pleasant and very scenic hill.
