Description
The Cima della Madonna is one of the major summits within the Pala Group in the Eastern Dolomites.
Getting There
Access to the climbs is from Rifugio del Velo at 2358 meters. The refugio is reached from the San Martino-Fiero di Primiero road via a track to Rifugio Malga Civertaghe. A 2 hour walk brings one to Rifugio Velo.
[Hide Comment] An alternative approach to the Rifugio Velo if the road to Malga Civertaghe is out/under construction (as it currently is): park at Caffe Col, and follow the 724 to the 713. This takes approximately 2-2.5 hours and ~1km elevation gain. The standard approach from just above the Malga Civertaghe on the 713 takes ~1.5 hours (reportedly).
Additional note: In the early season it is possible to have snow in the descent gully between Saas Maor and Cima della Madonna, which requries axe/crampons. Current status can be ascertained by calling the rifugio velo.
