Access to the starting point:
From Kranjska Gora, take the Rateče border crossing to Trbiž / Tarvisio. Continue along the old road to Udine. After a few kilometres from Trbiz / Tarvisio, the road to Ovčje vas / Valbruna turns off to the left. Turn left here and follow the road as far as mountain pasture Zajzero, where you park in a large parking lot.
Path description:
From the parking lot, follow the signs for Rifugio Grego. The path climbs through the forest and leads us within an hour to the hut, which stands on the mountain pasture with a very nice view of the north face of Montage.
From the hut, you descend a little on a macadam road to the Sella di Somdogna (Rudni vrh), which is also reached by a tarmac road from the Dunjska valley. Continue along the asphalt road, which descends a few bends, and then leave the road and turn right onto a narrow marked track.
The path starts to climb steeply through dwarf pines, crosses some torrents and leads to a crossroads.
To the right is the trail to Pipar (2069m) and we continue to the left along trail 468 towards the Bernardinis bivouac. The trail continues through the already slightly overgrown dwarf pines and then turns slightly to the left. The trail then descends slightly and later crosses the rather steep and crumbly slopes below Piparji. Soon we are joined on the left by the 605 trail, which also comes from the Dunjska valley, but with a slightly lower starting point. The trail turns slightly to the right and starts climbing towards the Forcella Cianalot (1830m).
At the saddle, turn left and there is a 20-minute climb through sparse dwarf pines and grassy slopes to the bivouac of Ricovero Bernardinis.
