Turn-by-turn directions
From the parking area, you follow the road in the “Rifugio Potzmauer” direction. After a few metres, you take trail 480, which runs almost parallel to the forest road along the “Rio Dei Pezzi”.
The trail marked 480, after having crossed the forest road twice, joins the small road just beneath Passo Potzmauer (or della Cima 1350 m), which you soon reach.
Following the direction for the mountain hut, you move down into the woods and reach the beautiful Potzmauer clearing at 1292 m.
To return, you follow the same route backwards.
