Monte Bìvera

Monte Bìvera is a mountain summit in the Carnic Alps rising to 2,474 meters and features a twin peak structure with Clapsavon positioned nearby to the west. The mountain displays steep limestone walls with various climbing routes that appeal to experienced alpinists.

The geological formation of this mountain dates back millions of years when an ancient sea covered the region, leaving behind the limestone structure visible today. This marine past shaped the entire landscape of the Carnic Alps.

Local mountaineering groups maintain various climbing routes on Monte Bìvera, preserving traditional Alpine climbing techniques passed down through generations.

Marked trails connect the mountain to Forni di Sopra and the surrounding valleys, with routes varying in difficulty from moderate to challenging. A mountain refuge sits northwest of the summit and provides shelter and supplies for visitors undertaking the climb.

The mountain sits within reach of Forni di Sopra, a well-known hiking base, making it accessible to serious mountaineers without requiring lengthy approaches. This proximity to an established alpine center sets it apart from more isolated peaks in the range.
