Nel gruppo del Cristallo, l'oronimo “Popena”, di origine molto antica, identifica più di un luogo: due valli (la Val Popena Alta e la Val Popena Bassa), a peak (Piz Popena), a Pass, a saddle, two towers, a spire, a tower that was renamed in 1893, and finally a top definitely not bold. Quite famous because 85 years ago a young Vicenza, Severino Casara, we inaugurated the climbing Misurina, now on its walls run various routes of all difficulties. The peak in question, the Popena Low, wide dome is covered with dwarf pines, which culminates at 2225 m Misurina overlooking the lake with a large yellow and gray wall, a hundred to two hundred meters high It has a double oronimo: some, including this writer, called the Monte Popena, Popena other down, but many confuse it with the "big brother", Piz Popena, who is standing right behind him but has more features. Our "small, but not less than" Popena is the goal of a pleasant walk, which is an interesting flight, maybe autumn, nature. Especially recommended when you do not step up already over and you want to immerse themselves in an ancient forest, the regular route involves the slope of a gentle and Baranci back and opens a peak in the grassy part, with a beautiful view of the Alta Val Popena and the crystal. Three years ago, a Sunday in late September, after so long, we went up there to enjoy the solitude of a rope that climbers snob and many hikers do not know. Obviously, in the fog pierced by a pale autumn sun that day there were only two.
