Starting from the car park at the base of the chairlift, head west then turn south and climb up through the forest.


As you reach the top of the chairlift the mighty Tofano can be seen to the north."


Just to the left are tracks leading into the Val Travenanzes.


Cinque Torri - there were 5 towers but one collapsed in 2004.


An open air war museum is set amongst the rocky terrain to commemorate the fighting in the first world war.




There are numerous paths in and amongst the towers and a circuit around them.




The towers are popular with climbers.



They start young.



Coming around and looking south.


Rifugio Cinque Torri is just below.



Coming around to the west...
