Torre Inglese

International > Europe > Italy > Dolomites > Cinque Torri Group

Description

One of the smaller of the Cinque Torri towers, Torre Inglese (aka Quinta Torre) is the northwest most formation of interest in the area.

There are several routes on this formation with the most popular being the Via Normale located on the Southeast side.

This is a neat, free standing thin tower with a fine exposed summit.

Great views.

Getting There

West of the main Torre Grande, take the trail which heads north past the west side of Massi, Torre Latina, and Torre Quarta Alta.
