Perfect for those who have tried another via ferrata before and would like to test their skills on something slightly more complex. There is some significant exposure in places, so you shouldn&#8217;t suffer from vertigo. Because the route faces north, it is prone to icing at the start and end of the season when the temperatures at night can fall below zero. Extrapolating, the best months to tackle via ferrata Brigata Tridentina are July, August, and September. However, July would be my pick if you want to see the waterfall next to the route in all its glory. The later it gets in the season, the waterfall eventually turns into a little trickle of water.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-grid-wrapper gb-grid-wrapper-f89bf249\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column

The latter makes the whole route slightly longer distance-wise, but it cuts on some elevation gain and loss because it lies at a higher elevation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background\" style=\"background-color:#48bda336\">TIP: Another advantage of starting at Passo Gardena is that after completing via ferrata Brigata Tridentina, you can take a few hours rest at one of the rifugios located on the pass (rifugio Jimmy is my recommendation), and if the weather allows it, tick off the short but mighty&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/inafarawayland.com\/via-ferrata-gran-cir\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">via ferrata Gran Cir<\/a>&nbsp;for sunset.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-defae52a\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-89b058e0\">\n\n<h4 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-30c206c4 gb-headline-text\">By bus<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Public buses run daily from Val Badia and <a href=\"https:\/\/inafarawayland.com\/things-to-do-in-val-gardena\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"22946\">Val Gardena<\/a> to Passo Gardena during high season.

This option will take approximately 30 minutes. By the way, the impressive Val Setus is where you will descend to get back to where you started. Some signs point to ferrata Pisciad\u00f9, which is part of the name for Brigata Tridentina, so don\u2019t let that misguide you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As you climb along the Exner Tower, you gain incredible views over Colfosco and Corvara. Around halfway up, an escape route leads to the Pisciad\u00f9 hut. Take it if you have had enough or the weather takes a turn for the worse. Otherwise, continue to the bridge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The culmination of the cable section is the suspension bridge between Torre Exner and Mur de Pisciad\u00f9 stone wall, which you walked under earlier in the day. After the suspension bridge, it\u2019s another 15-20 minutes of hiking until you reach Rifugio Pisciad\u00f9. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"cc-m-header-12694125199\">The Pisciad\u00f9 Summit Extension<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Once at the refuge, you have a couple of options. If you are thirsty for more incredible views, consider going to the summit of Cima Pisciad\u00f9. This adds another 2 hours (return) and approximately 400 meters in elevation gain. From Rifugio Pisciad\u00f9, the route to the summit follows path 666.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After about 30 minutes and a short cable-protected scramble, a sign points to the summit. The way up and down follows the same path.&nbsp;It\u2019s a short and intense scramble, but it&#8217;s worth it. From the summit, you can look down on both sides of Passo Gardena and, on a clear day, even see the snow-capped Austrian Alps in the far distance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"cc-m-header-12694126399\">The Way Back To The Car Park<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>If you would like to call it a day, the return to Passo Gardena will take approximately 90 minutes. Follow path number 666 in the opposite direction to the one mentioned above. It passes through a steep gully (protected with cables, so leave your VF gear on) and then a zig-zag descent on a packed scree slope through Val Setus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you reach a fork at the bottom of Val Setus, depending on where you started earlier in the day, it\u2019s either straight down on path 666A to the Pisciad\u00f9 car park or left on path 666 back to Passo Gardena.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background\" style=\"background-color:#48bda336\"><strong>TIP:<\/strong> suppose you took a bus to Passo Gardena and would like to return to Colfosco or Corvara on foot from Rifugio Pisciad\u00f9. In that case, you can take path 676 and then 651 through De Mesdi Valley. This descent will take approximately 2.5 hours.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-ae706401\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-wrapper gb-grid-wrapper-cf497c1c\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-79ddd9a6\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-79ddd9a6\">\n\n<figure class=\"gb-block-image gb-block-image-195e5adc\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1365\" class=\"gb-image gb-image-195e5adc\" src=\"https:\/\/inafarawayland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Brigata-Tridentina-1-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"Brigata Tridentina-1-2\" srcset=\"https:\/\/inafarawayland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Brigata-Tridentina-1-2.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/inafarawayland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Brigata-Tridentina-1-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/inafarawayland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Brigata-Tridentina-1-2-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/inafarawayland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Brigata-Tridentina-1-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/inafarawayland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Brigata-Tridentina-1-2-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\">\n<figcaption class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-297cddf3 gb-headline-text\">The views from the summit of Pisciad\u00f9<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-58e99dc4\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-58e99dc4\">\n\n<figure class=\"gb-block-image gb-block-image-87eebb2b\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1365\" class=\"gb-image gb-image-87eebb2b\" src=\"https:\/\/inafarawayland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Brigata-Tridentina-2-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"Brigata Tridentina-2-2\" srcset=\"https:\/\/inafarawayland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Brigata-Tridentina-2-2.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/inafarawayland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Brigata-Tridentina-2-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/inafarawayland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Brigata-Tridentina-2-2-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/inafarawayland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Brigata-Tridentina-2-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/inafarawayland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Brigata-Tridentina-2-2-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\">\n<figcaption class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-4b04772e gb-headline-text\">The views from the summit of Pisciad\u00f9<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-5862083d\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-5862083d\">\n\n<figure class=\"gb-block-image gb-block-image-bf0dd8f2\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" class=\"gb-image gb-image-bf0dd8f2\" src=\"http:\/\/inafarawayland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sella-Group-Traverse-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"Sella-Group-Traverse-1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/inafarawayland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sella-Group-Traverse-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/inafarawayland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sella-Group-Traverse-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/inafarawayland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sella-Group-Traverse-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/inafarawayland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sella-Group-Traverse-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\">\n<figcaption class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-37f814e7 gb-headline-text\">Hiking  the summit extension<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-fa47eee6\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-7b4b6a43\">\n\n<h3 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-85b4602e\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Overnight_stay_dining_possibilities\"><\/span><span class=\"gb-icon\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 180 180\" version=\"1.1\" id=\"Layer_1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><defs><style>.st0{fill:none;stroke:#000;stroke-linecap:round;stroke-miterlimit:10;stroke-width:10px}<\/style><\/defs><circle r=\"4.33\" cy=\"137.95\" cx=\"100.32\"><\/circle><path class=\"st0\" d=\"M69.81 5.41v28.6c0 6.69-5.43 12.12-12.12 12.12h-8.75c-6.69 0-12.12-5.43-12.12-12.12V5.41M53.01 41.31V5.41M53.01 68.7V48.13M20.89 73.29V5.41M9.08 99.79l80.44-56.18 80.45 56.18\"><\/path><path class=\"st0\" d=\"M158.29 93.06v72.72H20.89V71.29\"><\/path><path class=\"st0\" d=\"M88.06 100.64h38.66v65.15H88.06zM126.72 111.09h29.34M21.36 111.09h15.16M73.92 111.09h12.92M126.72 137.95h29.34M21.36 137.95h66.7M33.69 84.23h112.54M63.35 62.82h52.42M20.89 5.41h0v47.63H4.72V21.58c0-8.93 7.25-16.17 16.17-16.17ZM37.52 100.62h30.62v24.92H37.52z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span><span class=\"gb-headline-text\">Overnight stay &amp; dining possibilities<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-3f8003c9\">\n\n<p>Rifugio Pisciad\u00f9 is the only alpine hut along via ferrata Pisciad\u00f9, where you can stay overnight.
