Sella Nevea – Monte Canin
Friuli-Venezia Giulia
Monte Canin's bare limestone slopes hide one of the deepest cave systems in Europe, explored by generations of Julian Alps speleologists, though the surface route stays well clear of any shafts. The climb from Sella Nevea passes through the last stunted larches before opening onto stark scree and rock, with views stretching into Slovenia's Julian Alps.
