From alpine hut to alpine hut: first, a pleasant hike to the Passo di Gana Negra with its pitch-black rocks, green meadows and small streams. Then a steep descent and an ascent across a high plateau to the Passo delle Columbe with views of several 4000-metre peaks. Your destination is the Capanna Cadagno above lake Ritom.
