When climbing Pizzocco, the Cross and the Trigonometric Point, one cannot help but remember that the north-east face measures 600 meters vertically. It was climbed for the first time in July 1959, by the Swiss team composed of Hans Weber and Albin Schelbert. Again on 3 and 4 June 1978, the Bellunesi Franco Miotto and Riccardo Bee conquered the direct route with a new route on the daring rocky horn clearly visible from Val Belluna. Over the years there have been many attempts (some disastrous) to conquer Pizzocco, unfortunately unsuccessful. While the walls of the west face, several climbers from Feltre conquered them. Already in 1948 on that face the Via dell'Amicizia was opened by Franceschini and Palminteri. The west crest via Castiglioni - Detassis etc. The normal climb is not recommended in winter due to the exposure of the path and a delicate passage over an abyss. For the rest you can enjoy a wonderful view both to the north and to the south of the Venetian Lagoon.

A peak that enjoys a wonderful panoramic view, in the last stretch it is necessary to pay attention because it is a little rocky.
