Monte Talm is the easternmost elevation of the mountain range that borders Val Pesarina to the north. The summit is accessible from both sides, offering breathtaking views that embrace Val Pesarina, Val Degano and Val Calda, with picturesque villages scattered throughout the landscape. Among the visible peaks stand out Coglians and the Volaia, Fleons and Avanza mountains, while along the ridge rise the Crete di Chiampizzulon, Pleros, Cimone, Tuglia, and in the distance the Clap Group and Creta di Mimoias.
These trails, immersed in an almost untouched environment, host rare species of fauna and spring blossoms, making the excursion a unique journey between history and nature. The imposing rocky walls of the surrounding panoramas give a magical atmosphere to an already extraordinary landscape, creating an unforgettable experience for mountain lovers.

From the parking lot we start on foot following the forest road that, from Piani di Vas, climbs towards the Talm saddle (CAI path 227 then 228a to cut across the numerous hairpin bends). From the Saddle, take path 226a which goes into the woods (not the descending road) briefly reaching the Baita of the Hunters' Refuge (private) then continue with ups and downs until the last uphill section through the woods, reaching the grassy ridge and then the summit of Monte Talm where the Friendship Bell stands out.
For the descent, take CAI path 226 which quickly descends from the southern side towards Prato Carnico among the summit meadows, quickly immersing into the woods. Once you reach the forest track (CAI 228) go back uphill to regain the Talm saddle. Continue on the same: after about 500 m we find on the left the path that climbs and takes us to the Chiampizzulon Refuge.
From here, descend along the forest road and then along the same route taken uphill, reaching back the Piani di Vas.
