How to get there:
A good trailhead is located near a local col on quite a narrow, paved mountain road. This location is N46.27350, E13.01281, elevation slightly above 900 meter. It is possible that one may also drive the forest road that forks from this road near location N46.27169, E13.01041, this road climbs the hillside, a few cars can park near N46.27712, E13.00817. This gains almost 200 vertical meter. The upper part of this road looked good, but I never checked if one may legally drive up here.
Route::
The trail is well marked and easy to follow. First, ascending to the forest road above, then follow this right to the bend where the trail leaves (left) the road and runs uphill to access the summit. There are 2 summit points, the last one likely the highest.

A track is posted on Peakbagger.

Comments:
I first had a very nice climb of Monte Verzegnis. Driving back to our hotel in Alesso, there was still time for a bonus peak. I started hiking at 1550, the ascent took one hour. It is a nice peak with a good view. There is a madonna symbol on one of the summot points. After a short break, I descended back down in 45 minutes.
