Monte Tinisa

Monte Tinisa rises to 2120 meters in the Carnic and Gailtal Alps, forming a distinct rock pyramid visible from the Sauris region. Multiple routes lead to its peak, each offering different terrain and difficulty levels as they converge at the summit.

The established Sentiero attrezzato De Monte Pascul links this peak with two others in this section of the Italian Alps, creating a historic connection between them. The trail developed as an important route crossing this alpine region.

The summit lies where Italian and Austrian mountain cultures meet, blending regional climbing styles and trail marking practices from both sides. This cross-border character shapes how visitors experience the ascent.

The main access begins at Passo del Pura, where parking is available approximately 500 meters before the trail starts. Proper mountain boots and preparation for alpine conditions are needed, as the ascent includes steep sections with significant elevation gain.

The rock formation has a special quality: from different angles, the pyramid appears to change its profile and shape significantly. Hikers often notice that the view from the north looks entirely different compared to approaching from the south.
