Kliener Lagazuoi, Italy

Another wet day ... we woke up to the rain, but by mid morning this had eased to a light drizzle ...  the days spend reading the scrambles book. In it was a novel route .. down the inside of a mountain - following an old tunnel, from the first world war.

Taking the cable car to the top of the Kleiner Lagazuoi, we stepped out into the clouds, but soon followed the signs into the interior of the mountain.

I was soon glad we had brought our head torches.  the way down was on angled steps, which would be OK on the way up, however on the way down it was treacherous, especially when matched with the rain we had been enduring for several days.

Various galleries on the way down, provided some distraction, and we soon came out at the lower entrance.  ..   there was still a fair way to descend

It did provide a suitable excursion for an otherwise damp day.
