Once arrived at the Rifugio Comici, go west (no. 101) to reach the passage Fiscalino. Almost there: only 10 minutes to our hut!

From there it takes you about 1 hour (no. 101), on a path almost flat, then steep, to our Pian di Cengia shelter.

    Known as the Giro dei Rifugi di Sesto (Sesto hut tour), duration: 7 hours.
     

  • Tip: The hut tour is an experience in both directions. The ascent via the Rifugio Comici is shadier, so on hot days we recommend walking clockwise.
