Easy route with skins from the station of arrival of the Grostè cablecar to the scenic Cima Roma and back along the same route.

The route to Cima Roma is suitable for the ski mountaineering beginners. The route, quite easy, is not dangerous and it is very famous. It has a long stretch on apparently flat ground and you have to put your skins also during the return. The arrival point, Cima Roma, is unbelievably scenic and suggestive. The climb takes about 2,30 hours and the downhill 1,30 hour.

Author’s recommendation

Please, always contact the mountain guides before starting the route to check the weather forecast and the snow conditions.

Station of arrival of the Grostè cablecar (2437 m a.s.l.)

Turn-by-turn directions

From the arrival station of the Grosté cablecar at 2437 m a.s.l. go up to the arrival of the Grostè chairlift and from here, going south-west, continue on an apparently flat ground, first up and then down, up to reach the north-east side of Cima Grostè (avoid going too up).

Go down diagonally in the following basin, heading south-east you reach Sella Flavona area at the foot of Cima Roma at 2550 m a.s.l. (1,30 hours). From here go up the steep side of Cima Roma easily up to the top (1,00-2,30 hours).

Downhill: the same route of the ascent.

Public transport

Check the Trentino Trasporti bus timetable - www.ttesercizio.it

 

By road

Reach the Grostè cablecar, 1 km north of Madonna di Campiglio along the road SS239.

From Pinzolo: take the tunnel at the entrance of Madonna di Campiglio - avoiding the centre of the village - and go towards Campo Carlo Magno for about  1 km after the exit of the tunnel.

From Dimaro: pass Campo Carlo Magno and, after about 800 meters, reach the Grostè cablecar.

 

Parking

A big car park (fee required) at the departure of the Grostè cablecar.

Bellissimo!!! Piacevole gita in saliscendi con salita finale. Al rientro si deve "ripellare" per portarsi verso le piste. Attenzione per chi sale in cabinovia: acquistare il biglietto "Grostè 2". Condizioni neve ottime! Peccato per il tempo...ma è da rifare sicuro!
