From Piazza di Combo cross the Combo bridge, proceed along the Ripa Guardia Nazionale and via Castello and take path S532 until you reach path S533 for Pedemontana della Reit. Keeping left for 200 metres, you see the track that leads to the Cross of Reit. The walk, although very steep in places, is on a welltrodden path with numerous numbered bends through a forest of fir and larch, Scots pines and mountain pines as you ascend. The view from the Cross encompasses the whole valley and extends from the Valfurva to Valdidentro. Immediately above, past the tree line, is the majestic Dolomite stone wall of Monte Reit, where herds of deer, ibex, etc. can often be seen. Descent is possible via the same path or via Uzza and Pramezzano.
