This is the standard and best-known mountaineering route on Monte Antelao. It is a serious alpine ascent rather than a hiking trail, with exposed rocky passages and route-finding on steep terrain. The route is typically climbed from the south side and is usually described in guidebooks as the normal way to the summit. Conditions can vary significantly with snow, ice, and loose rock, which can increase the difficulty and objective hazard. The route is generally considered a classic Dolomite mountaineering objective. Exact timing and gain vary by starting point and conditions, and are not given here because they are not reliably documented in the available source context.
