| access | -take the cable way from Recoaro town center to Recoaro Mille,then 2km by shuttle bus and then chairlift to Montefalcone [2018 edit: chairlift and cable way are no more in use] -on the road from Valdagno to Recoaro just before the village of S.Quirico turn left to Recoaro Mille; park here and take the chairlift to Montefalcone [2018 edit: chairlift and cable way are no more in use] Ask before going up if the chairlift is working. If you feel like you can also walk up, it takes about one hour one and a half, just follow more or less the skislope. |
| comments | this SW facing take off is the best in the valley if you want to fly late in the afternoon and just soar mild termo-dynamic |
