Sas da Ciamp, Cima da Ciamp and Monte Toac

DESCRIPTION
Panoramic excursion above Moena.
The proposed excursion is a fascinating circular itinerary which, although not excessively demanding, offers fantastic views. This route, characterized by a difference in altitude of approximately 1,000 metres, allows you to conquer three peaks: Sas da Ciamp, Cima da Ciamp and Monte Toac, all part of the majestic Latemar Group.
The climb to these peaks, although it has steep sections, is well worth it. Once you reach the top, you will be rewarded by a spectacular view that embraces the Latemar Group, the Catinaccio, the various Dolomite groups of the Alta Val di Fassa, the picturesque Moena, the suggestive Val San Pellegrino and even the majestic Lagorai Group. An unmissable experience for mountain and wild nature lovers.
