Campitello - Pian - Campitello

A few dozen metres from "Piaz de Ciampedel", the central square, where "Strèda de Salin" and "Strèda de Sènc Felip e Giacum" meet, climb the steps on the right. Go up a terraced path along which you will meet a series of chapels for the "Via Crucis" (the Way of the Cross). The chapels will lead to the village of "Pian". Here you can visit the village, one of the most ancient settlements in Val di Fassa. There are still people living here and some ancient ovens used to bake bread are still visible. Go back to Campitello descending to the right the asphalt road ("Strèda de Pian") leading to "Strèda de Col" and then to the starting point of the route. Alternatively, you can go in the opposite direction and take the dirt road that, across the mountainside, enters the Val Duron. After approximately a kilometre you arrive at the dirt road that climbs up from Campitello. Go left and cross the bridge in "Pian da Molin" and continue on that track, which is at first even and then climbs steeply towards Campitello.

From Campitello mail square take "Strèda dò Ruf". At the junction between "Strèda de Salin" and "Strèda Sènc Felip e Giacum", turn to the right and go up the steps of ex Col Rodella chair lift station, walking in the direction of the upper hamlet of "Pian". Free parking spaces are available near the "Alpine Guides’ House" (turn to the right just before the bridge crossing the stream "Rio Duron").

Once you get to "Pian" (fountains can be found along the way), you can decide whether following the dirt road leading to Val Duron and returning down to Campitello, or immediately descending to the village centre along the paved road called "Strèda de Pian".
