Diedro Mayerl - Heiligkreuzkofel
![Diedro Mayerl Heiligkreuzkofel](/uploads/img/1/92165.jpg)
Logical and extremely exposed line up the obvious corner to the left of the ”Grande Muro”. On the whole the route climbs up fairly solid rock, but in parts though this may be a bit friable.
Take the motorway A22 to Bressanone, then continue along the SS49 through the Val Pusteria to S.Lorenzo. Continue along the SS244 through the Val Badia to Corvara. Alternatively, take the motorway A22 to Chiusa and continue along the SS242 up the Val Gardena to Passo Gardena and down to Corvara. At Corvara follow signs for La Villa - Pedraces. At Pedraces take the chairlift on the right to the refuge and church Santa Croce, from where the path leads off to the base of the routes.
AccessFrom Santa Croce (2045m), beneath Sass dla Crusc, follow path no. 7 that leads beneath the mountain past scree slopes and alpine meadows up to the ferrata. The path initially leads over scree to then climb up rightwards. Leave the path at this point following a track (cairn markers) up the long outcrop to the base of the wall proper. Various tracks lead to the route at this point: traverse left at the end over the final outcrop and scramble up scree to the base of the large corner.
DescentFrom the top of the route follow the crest and path right (south) to reach Furcla dla Crusc 2609m and the cables belonging to the ferrate. Walk down this to meet up with the path that leads to the Santa Croce refuge (1.30 hours).
GearNormal alpine rack.
NotesThe 60m pitches can be divided into two pitches. Belays in-situ.
Ripetizione agosto 2024 “Un po’ friabile” significa “tutto marcio il primo friend lo metti a 13 metri da terra” Ci sono mi pare 4 cunei di legno: uno ha il filo di ferro rotto, l’altro non ha nessun cordino passante” Molto soste intermedie che fanno un pelo perdere l’orientamento Tanta roccia rotta ma linea incredibile. I due tiri placca sono favolosi e ci sono anche i chiodi dentro, incredibile ;) Ps. Molto più impegnativa di Große Mauer. Quasi non paragonabili.
