From the parish church in Colfosco, walk westwards on trail no. 4 through the Stella Alpina valley. The trail takes you past an old wayside shrine and westwards up to the highest corrie with the Ciampëi lake (2,173 m), which is often dried up. Passing to the left of the lake, you climb uphill, with a very steep final section, up to the Forcela Ciampëi passage. Here you keep to the right, following trail no. 2 (part of the Dolomites Alpine Ridgeway no. 2, which goes from Bressanone in South Tyrol to Feltre in Veneto) and climbing up a rocky gully to the Puez Plateau. Continuing on trail no. 2, you cross the plateau, going north-west and gradually uphill, to the Rifugio Puez hut (2,475 m).The descent to Colfosco follows the same route, which takes about 1 hour 50 minutes.
