From the Ghiacciaio dei Forni hotel, take the trails S528 and S555 uphill through a pure Swiss pine forest considered one of the most interesting in the Stelvio Park. Above the Forni huts, continue west on a flatter path and a service road that leads to the Pradaccio di Sopra huts. Continue along trail S527 and, passing the Raseit huts, reach the Ables huts and the eponymous farm stay. The route winds through pastures, where you can enjoy an excellent view of Valfurva and the Forni Valley, dominated by the splendid pyramid of Mount Tresero. The most observant, looking up to the sky, may spot magnificent golden eagle specimens. From the Ables huts, begin the descent along trail S571.1 and, passing the Monich, Bacero, and Li Nanza huts, reach the village of Santa Caterina.
