Il Sentiero Attrezzato Amalio da Prà circumvents Monte Ciareido in the Marmarole, a much less popular dolomitic group of neighbors and for this wild and surprising. It is a medium difficulty ring: a couple of challenging equipped steps and, above all, exposed and unprotected traits that raise the overall commitment.

It starts from the Parco to the Memory of Pian dei Buoi, above Lozzo di Cadore. Just before the' intersection between the SS52 and the SS51 a road on the left, with indications for the Ciareido and the Marmarole, rises for several kilometers and è narrow: in high season there is the senso unico alternating at times (verify on the site of the Municipality). You get to' last parking (100 places), not far from the Ciareido Refuge. Open road signs on Google Maps. Continue on the dirt road until the Rifugio Ciareido (1969 m, 15' from the parking lot); just beyond, at a crossroad, the destra is held on the CAI 272 towards the north, remaining on the floor until a crossroad where on the left a path with red signs climbs rapidly towards l' obvious fork between the Ciareido and a.

From the fork you go down to the left and quickly meet the equipment: the cable acts as the runner downhill to bypass the Pian dei Buoi Tower first and then the east side of the Ciareido; characteristic a passage where the cable runs along a channel carved diagonally into the wall. The path descends steeply and bends to the left with some cenge almost always protected. Start the più tract; interesting: you descend a few meters in dis climbing on the east walls of the Ciareido, you walk a stretch of exposed and equipped path and you go up a vertical parete equipped – the più point; difficult of the track, however on moderate levels. A last canal with a few leaps closes the equipment; we continue halfway following the abundant signs to the fork on the south side of the Ciareido, where the equipped path ends (1h 30' from' attack, 2h 30' from parking).

The equipped parts are quite easy, except for the downhill section and the vertical wall to rise, not trivial. L' greater commitment lies in the unprotected tracts and exposed, where they serve firm foot and attention: no excessively difficult passage, but not to underestimate.
