Another fairly relaxing day, we went to Arabba and stopped for a coffee and checked out the cable car for tomorrow. Then headed down the valley and up the other side to Ronc. We were just going up a short climb to the top of a small peak. It is the sight of many bolted routes not surprisingly as it was really a giant lump of rock with very straight sides.

After an initial false start we retraced our steps and easily found the cleft in the rock that marked the beginning of the gorge. We went up a ladder then staples and then more staples and a nice little path to a bothy. And up to a view point. Coming down we went down the other side of the gorge and found more staples but they were a bit dodgy so we went back up the gorge contoured round and under the bolted routes and down through the wood to the c road and the car. Lovely.

Not the right path!
