The route is nicknamed "The High Route of the legends"[1] and indeed with the exception of its initial and final segments, it maintains an altitude of at least 1300 meters.

The trail passes through various mountain ranges including Plose-Putia, Puez-Odle, Sella, Marmolada, Pale di San Martino and Vette Feltrine, and crosses 30 mountain passes.[2]
