This itinerary is aimed at hikers curious to discover the thousand natural aspects of this corner of the Carnic mountains. The route, with signage and dedicated boards, initially develops on the wooded northern slopes of the Tinisa group, reaching the solitary alpine pasture of Casera Tintina. From the meadows in front of the building, the trail climbs steeply toward the northern cliffs, using a small equipped ledge to gain the meadows of the steep southern slope near a modest saddle.
The route alternates meadows and easy ridges, reaching Punta dell'Uccel and descending to the Montof saddle with another short equipped passage.
From the panoramic saddle, descend to the long wooded ridge of M. Cavallo di Cervia, where huge specimens of fir and larch accompany hikers. Descending steeply to the Tintina stream, continue through sparse forest returning again to the pasture of the hut, thus closing the loop.
Author’s recommendation
The ascent from Tintina to the saddle is reserved for experienced hikers due to the very exposed section before the saddle.

Directions
The starting point of the hike is reached by following the SS 52 Carnica road from Ampezzo towards Forni di Sopra. Shortly after the Al Pura restaurant, after a left hairpin bend, take the paved road to Passo Pura on the right, which should be followed for 9 km until reaching the wide saddle of the pass. After passing the Tita Piaz refuge and the Baita Torino, after a hairpin bend, take the dirt road on the left leading shortly to a large gravel clearing in the forest. Parking is possible near the picnic table.
The parking lot can also be reached from the Lumiei valley by taking the turnoff to the road climbing to Sauris near the Lumiei dam; in this case, crossing the dam crest and through the subsequent tunnels, keep to the main road leading up to Passo Pura (shortly before take the dirt road on the right).
Parking
Large parking lot on the forest road leading to Casera Tintina, just before the no-entry sign
