Ensure you wear appropriate hiking shoes and carry enough water and snacks, as there are no facilities along the way. From the Latteria di Livigno, take the dirt road that runs alongside the lake, leading through an ancient larch forest (Bosc del Restel) to the Ristoro Val Alpisella. Continue along the cart track that ascends to the right of the Ristoro until you reach a small bridge, beyond which a simple path begins to climb.
