Especially in contrast to the nearby and better known Pizzo Lucendro and Fibbia less visited destination. This route, which is made after the opening of the Gotthard pass road at typical Frühlingsfirn, offers a short but steep descent to the pass and can possibly be combined with the ascent to nearby Pizzo Fortünéi due to the modest difference in altitude. All in all a nice tour to get to know the lesser known and more lonely side of the Gotthard massif!

Route description

Gotthard Pass - ski depot
From the Gottard Pass (2106 m), take the agricultural road which, passing altitude marker 2217 m, reaches the Alpe di Fortünéi (2231 m). Shortly after the alp, begin to climb in a north-easterly direction, passing the hut at Grasso della Riva (2282 m). With a regular slope you go up the entire Rive Valley to the Sunnig Lücke (2585 m) which is the ski depot.
