Alpi Apuane Central Section: 2nd climb of Monte Freddone (1,479m) on December 29, 2025. The trailhead is at the West ridge of Monte Corchia past the Marginetta a San Rocco. Then you hike to the Passo di Fociomboli to reach the climbers path off of CAI 11. The path first traverses the East side of Monte Paglino before climbing to the saddle between it and Monte Freddone. While generally a benign climb, there are a number of rock scrambles on the route.
