Two-countries hike on Monte Zermula

Monte Zermúla is an elongated limestone ridge running parallel to the main Karnic ridge. Characteristic of this impressive local mountain of Paularo are its lush flower meadows with edelweiss & co., as well as the well-preserved military paths, caves, and wayside shrines.

Oprema

Everyone can pack their backpack individually, but the following should always be included:

- Good hiking or mountain boots, snacks, drinks, rain protection, sunscreen, hiking pole, possibly a change of clothes.

Usmeritve

Starting at the Lanzenpass, we leave on a well-used path and cross a clear forest and a beautiful, flat alpine pasture on our way up to the Forca di Lanza (1.831 m). Here we will continue on a former military track. This track leads, after a short ascent, in westerly direction very close to the southern side of the Monte Zermula and beneath the rocks of the east summit.

The last section of the tour leads us up to a wayside shrine, which was erected by the 35th Company of the Alpini Battalion "Susa" in 1916. A red arrow on the wayside shrine points to the steep ascent in direction summit on the right-hand side. It takes about 15 minutes from the shrine to the summit.

A very impressive view in all directions will be the reward for our efforts.
