    Turn-by-turn directions

    From the parking area Sciaré, take trail no. 11 heading east, passing the restaurant Capanna Alpina till a fork. From here, always on track no. 11, climb to the panoramic point Col de Locia (2069 m) (1h 35min.). Continuing on the same trail through the great swathes of alpine pines, you will get to the Plan de Ciaulunch, a large verdant plateau. At the beginning of this you find a junction, where on the right on trail no. 20B, you reach the Forcela dl Lech notch (2475 m), the highest point of your itinerary (3h 40min.). The descent is on a steep but well maintained path, to the Lech de Lagació lake. Continue on trail no. 20 through a steep gorge, which brings you firstly to the Ütia Scotoni hut (20min.), then along the ski slope Armentarola by the restaurant Capanna Alpina back to the starting point Sciaré (1h 10min.).
