Overview

 
 
Croz del Rifugio is the first summit of the little Monte Daino subgroup and the only (I think) climbed.
It is a smart thin rocky ridge of very fine rock with 3 different summits : NO
main summit
Campanile Teresa


Getting There

Starting point for all routes is the Rifugio Pedrotti (2491 m)
I think that nobody will start from the valley just to climb this mountain but, due to its nearness to Rifugio Pedrotti e Tosa it gives possibilities to amuse when spending time there (a rest day, a bad weather day, after Brenta Bassa or Cima Margherita or Brenta Alta climb ecc.)

You can get it starting from Madonna di Campiglio (1515 m), by car or taxi-service to Rifugio Valsinella (1513 m).
on foot : path 317 - to Rif. Casinei, then path 318 : 2 h walk from Vallesinella you get the Rif.Brentei and, in 1 more hour, along the path to the Bocca di Brenta you can get the Rif.Pedrotti

Routes overview

WNW ridge - normal route fine, amusing, exposed, not difficult, a total relax way to spend after dinner :) - less than 150 m - 2°
N wall - Piaz chimney classic climb that leads to the gap between the NW and the main summit - 200 m - 4°
N wall - diretta on the left of the previous, along the yellow and black wall - amusing - 200 m - 4°
ESE ridge exposed and amusing, almost forgotten - 2°
S wall easy (2°) along a forgotten grey wall, too far to reach :)
W wall many routes of all difficulties (up to 6°) , the most amusing is the SW edge - Gasperi - 3°

Campanile Teresa some different routes (difficulties from 3° up to ....) the SW edge is the finest - 4°


When To Climb

Best month for climbing are from July to September
In August the Hut is normally very crowded with hikers

Camping

if you use a small tent near Rif.Pedrotti (meadows are little but there is a lot of space on the carsic esplanade west of Refuge) you'll get no problems at all :)
