From the Campec locality in the Forni valley, near the Stella Alpina refuge, start climbing following the mule track that leads to the Pradaccio di Sotto huts and arrived coming out of the edge of the forest continue to the Pradaccio di Sopra huts. Continue to the left entering the Manzina valley and go up a small valley to the left of the obvious furrow where the Manzina stream descends, arriving then in a wide flat area; this point can also be reached starting from the Forni and going up above the Forni hut and after overcoming the first steep section you arrive on a short plateau that then enters the Pisella valley, from here you gradually climb towards the Prealda rock on the left. From here or losing a few meters of elevation gain, you arrive just below Manzina Lake, which you reach by bending diagonally to the left. Now continue in a northerly direction climbing along a wide gully to another flat area. Then along a steep slope to the right following a faint ridge below some small rocks. From here diagonally to the left until you reach the last section of ridge leading to the summit.
