We left Canazei in the morning and drove to Trento. The plan was to do a via feratta in the hills but it turned out that I was too spastic to read the map correctly and I lead us on a long walk around the back of the via feratta arriving after 500 m of climbing at the top. So, to avoid too much disappointment we decided to descend instead of climbing the route. It turned out there were just a couple of ladders anyway and otherwise it was a ramble so we didn\u2019t miss a whole lot.<\/p>\n

In the evening we drove along the side of the hill to the Rifugio Maranza where we talked to the warden. To our surprise they gave us a tip about where to stay for free. Instead of walking up the hill to the Biv. Marzola Raffaele Bailoni that was apparently full, they suggested walking a shorter distance to a building where they said we would be able to stay the night. We weren\u2019t sure what to expect but packed our gear for an over-nighter and headed off.<\/p>\n

It turned out the building was some sort of lodge, perhaps for school camps or something similar. It was closed up except for the winter room. We sneakily pitched our tent on the grass behind the hut and tucked into some rice and cheese.<\/p>\n
