Ombrico - Malga Granuda

Access to starting point:
Via the border crossing Rateče or Predel we drive to Trbiž / Tarvisio, and then we continue driving on the old road towards Videm / Udine. We follow this road to the settlement Cucco. We follow the main road to the turn-off for the settlement Ombrico. Here we leave the main road and turn left on a narrower road which at first runs slightly downwards. The road over a bridge crosses a wide riverbed of the river Fiuma Fella and then it turns to the right and joins the cycling path. Further, we drive on a narrow road which at the same time is also a cycling path. We follow this road to a small bridge after which we come to a crossroad. We turn left on an ascending road which leads us in the direction towards the viaduct of the highway. We park on a suitable place by the road near the viaduct.

Route description:
We continue on the road to the other side of the viaduct where there is a crossroad. We go straight on a cart track by which there is a sign which prohibits further driving. The cart track starts ascending and in the initial part we have some nice views towards the north where we can see a few peaks above the valley Kanalska dolina. After a few turns, the cart track brings us into the forest through which we then ascend for quite some time in hairpin turns. Higher, the cart track brings us to more easterly slopes where deeply below us we can hear the stream Rio Granuda Grande. Here occasionally some views also open up towards Dve špici. We then follow the cart track all the way to the mountain pasture Malga Granuda. When we come to the mountain pasture we ascend slightly further, at the right turn we come to a crossing where we also join the marked path.
To the left leads path 604 towards Dve špici, we continue right on the cart track and only a short ascent follows to the shepherd's hut on the mountain pasture.
