Itinerary of medium difficulty leading to the Creton dell'Arco (2357 m) in the Carnic Alps near Sappada. The final fireplace is the most technical passage of the street. Easily combined with the most demanding Ferrata dei Cinquanta del Clap for a long and varied day.

From Sappada (UD) you park in the wide south of Piave, near the camper stop. Follow the path 317 on the right of the Rio Storto, ignoring the right track for the Bivacco Damiana (sentiero 322, which will be option of return). You climb into the wood with hairpin bends to Passo dell'Arco (1907 m, 1h30'), recognizable for the homonymous rock arch. Already near the pass, on the right there is a well marked track that leads to the attack (1h45' from the parking lot).

The first equipped section dates back to a detritic canal with unstable grassy background. It reaches a nod that leads to the rocky walls and then to the beginning of the throat, which goes up with the help of some metal brackets alternating stretches equipped with a path with reduced difficulty. The last stretch is the most technical: a right-hand crossing on excellent hooks and then a well-dressed but more challenging fireplace of the average. After the fireplace you gain the final slope and on obvious trace with white-red signs you arrive at the Creton dell'Arco (2357 m, 1h15' from the beginning equipment, 3h total).

Moderately difficult. The final fireplace requires good technique and safety on the vertical steps.

Summer (July-September). Avoid with wet rock. The throat remains shaded until mid-morning.

It is restored for the same climb (2h from the peak, 5h total). A demanding alternative: from the top you can reach an intermediate point of the Ferrata dei Cinquanta del Clap, but this option is technically much more difficult and not recommended downhill.

La Fifties of the Clap at the Creton de Culzei is the natural combination for those looking for a more challenging day in the Carnic Alps of Sappada.
