Top of’ Albums – Before the Cross

Go to Pass Zambla – take the main road dirt road on the right (beginning of the trail) – proceed to Step up the spreader at a big white house with red shutters – continue taking over the right for about 300m – the trail on the left: There is a wooden sign on a tree with the inscription Calchera.

Partenza del Sentiero per l'Alben

  • Ascent: 230 pm′ about
The very first part of the ascent is made in the woods, but most of the path develops alla'aria open and is very sunny.
Shortly after taking the forest trail meets a majestic beech.

After about an hour and a quarter walk is a cross (marked by the CAI): the right to continue the cross dell'Alben, on the left goes’ the Refuge Nembrini (15′) where he is nailed to a wall of rock climbing, with different ways (one of these is the way of chocolate).

From Nembrini you can still reach the Cross in about half an hour.

From here on, the trail becomes slightly more challenging: the terrain is mostly rocky boulders that you have to walk on uneven.

La Croce dell'Alben

  • Descent: 130 pm′
From the cross there are several ways to get. We have taken the path that leads to the Basin. It’ quite challenging so it is recommended for experienced hikers on average and if possible with snowshoes. It’ steep, with stretches of scree. In mid-May was also snow in the channels.
Once at the square of the Basin, in the vicinity of the old hotel right on a dirt road that takes you back to the main stretch of the trail and there still holding the right to return to the starting point of the path.
