Climbing Route: From the Shelter Migliorero you go down and from the double showcase you take the path on the left that, passing on great rocks, goes beyond the double basins of the inferior lake of the Ischiator (2064mt). The path then meets the sign P26 on the rock that points out the right. You climb with ample bends up to the crossroad for the Pass Laris and the Becco Alto. A sign on a rock points out the right direction: the path climbs steeply on a earthy bed to a long stone plane. A second sign on a rock indicates the right direction again. The path goes up on a steep grassy slant with more and more narrow bends, it passes on the left a small barrack and it reaches the Pass Laris (2744mt) An clear path still goes down on the left and crosses a steep slant, then on the left it goes up again first on earth and stones, then on an ample ledge on rocky crags to finally reach a stony plane. Crossed the ledge the path passes on the right an old and disused construction in rock, and with steep bends reaches the long peak of the Becco Alto d’Ischiator (2996mt). The whole run is signaled by trail signs and red nicks.
