From the Altumeira parking lot, return towards Arnoga for about 200 m and at the fork, take the road that descends to the valley towards the Baite Minestra. The route connects with trail N293, becomes flat, and continues westward for a good stretch, following the Viola stream until Baita Caricci. From here, a bridge allows you to cross the watercourse. Climb to the right and ascend zigzag on a steep bushy slope, where you enjoy a dizzying view of a deep gorge carved by the Viola stream. At the top of the hill, cross a plateau until you reach the Federico Refuge in Dosde'. Continuing on a track through sparse pastures, you enter the valley. At an altitude of 2200 m, there is a fork with the left branch leading to the Caldarini Bivouac. Continue to the right along trails N208 and N292 that cross the Val Cantone di Dosde', until you reach the Pass and the Dosde' Hut. The view of the surrounding glaciers is magnificent.
