Rifugio Croda da Lago, Malga Peziè de Parù, Malga Federa

Descrizione

The Croda da Lago crag, located on the south-eastern slopes of the Croda da Lago, is undoubtedly one of the climbing areas with the most spectacular views overlooks Lago Federa in which the Becco di Mezzodì and the Rifugio Croda da Lago are reflected. The crag is divided into two sectors at a short distance from each other: the upper and lower sectors. The walls are located at about 2,100 m above sea level, facing south-east. Therefore, the crag is mainly suitable for the summer period and during sunny mornings in spring and autumn. There are some 30 pitches between 20 and 35 metres high and ranging in difficulty from 5b to 7b+. The first to realise the potential of the rock face was Renzo Sciorpaes “Zino”, who created the first routes in the upper sector in the 1980s. It was then the Scoiattolo and mountain guide Carlo Alverà, son of the manager of the Rifugio Croda da Lago, who retooled the crag for sport climbing and expanded it with the lower sector.

Note

Approach: The crag can be reached in 10 minutes on foot from the Croda da Lago hut, walking along its south side, climbing up the obvious scree and following gully, and finally following the path to the right. The Rifugio Croda da Lago can be reached from Ponte de Ru Curto along trail 437 to Cason de Formin and then path 434 to the mountain hut (approx. 1.5-2 hours). Alternatively, you can ascend from Campo either on foot (2-3 hours) or by shuttle bus to Croda da Lago. In the low season, you can drive to Malga Federa, from where the Rifugio Croda da Lago can be reached in about 40 minutes.
