"The presence of an extensive Cold War bunker underneath it makes this cute little hill rather interesting. Unfortunately there are only infrequent guided tours to visit inside, but it is a nice little walk from the road to the west. Saw lots of bushes with red berries that looked like redcurrants. Fly honeysuckle, apparently. On the top of the hill there is a strange steel contraption disguised as a rock. Purpose unclear." — vygodski • Jul 31, 2025

"From Camporosso, turning off road after the bridge at Hotel Spartiacque. Walk up gravel path until reaching the saddle between this and Monte Lomeg (not on Peakery). From here I walked to the highest point of the saddle then back again to where a small path to the north east leads to a small clearing. From here you can see a faint long zigzag path that goes under the rocky side to the north. I assume this is a disused path because it looks unnatural. From here one works one's way round to east. From here, where a smaller stone sits on top of a boulder I climbed straight up. Ridiculously steep up a deep mulch of soil and leaves. Small cairn at top. On return I noticed that one could have followed the path round clockwise to get an easier approach from the south east. After this, I retraced my path and regained track rising to a logging area. Going up a muddy logging track northwards I found my way through the forest to the marked path which goes up Lomeg. This winds its way up the ridge before reaching the level ground and then the highest point marked by a makeshift wooden cross in the woods. Returned along this higher path which descends through the forest, through a clearing wit..." — vygodski • Jul 29, 2025

"A perfect peak if you have a similar level of passion for C20th military history as you do climbing mountains. To reach the trailhead at Sella Somdogna, one travels up the Via Dogna, where in the early 1900s the road and various defensive structures were built in this part of Italy just behind the border with Austria. Along here a "war village" can be visited, which has a large fort with firing points, plus a fortified staircase and various other well preserved buildings. Lower down a WWI chapel and can be seen, plus the area where a large howitzer was stationed. The walk begins by the fountain (turned off) at the sella, and almost immediately one can spot bomb craters from Austrian artillery. Rising slowly in SE direction one reaches a flatter area above the larghetto. Here several trenches are clearly visible, and more further up the slopes as the good path gets steeper in a southern direction. Several ruined buildings of the epoch can be seen next to the path, as well as several caves in the rock which were used to store munitions and supplies. A fortified stone trench is also visible and rusty metal remnants can be found scattered around. The trail veres west and drops in he..." — vygodski • Jul 28, 2025

"From the northern lake to the south. Walked along lake some then north to gravel track, then straight into the forest and the strange environment. The hill is covered with small rocky mounds varying from 5 to 20m in height. Not much light gets through, the forest is thick and the rocks are covered in moss. Thick with leaves underfoot and fallen and rotting trees. I was initially convinced that the highpoint was actually on the 1000m contour line to the south, but entering deeper I found the mound that had to be the highest of the lot. An odd place, slightly menacing. Would be easy to get lost here." — vygodski • Jul 23, 2025

"Up the cable car to 1750m, then skirted around Lussari, down the road SE on onto trail which goes steadily up this on a good path. Two sections of crossing scree before arriving beneath the rocky ridge of Cacciatore. I passed beyond the via ferrata which looks like the principal way up, rising until one sees a sella. I did this to see if my companion who didn't want to take the ferrata gully would want to take the ridge. She didn't, so I continued alone up and down once or twice, occasionally a little hairy bits of climbing. Descended via the via ferrata, at one point dislodging some rocks which tumbled down to path below. I shouted a warning but no one else was around anyway. Rejoined companion under what I believe is another route up this to the north west, just under a plaque comemmorating a Captain Falcone who died there in a landslide in 1970. Returned same way. Spits of rain on and off but mostly dry." — vygodski • Jul 22, 2025
