geography

Location and landscape

The mountain lies on the edge of the southern Alps to the northern Italian plain , between the valley of the Tagliamento near Gemona to the west and the upper reaches of the Torre near Tarcento to the east. The landscape of the mountain looks mighty, it rises a good 1,500 meters above the northern Italian lowlands beginning at its foot , which is here at about 200 meters above sea level.

The Chiampon massif is karstified and rugged to the south and north, the foothills and mountain feet softer and wooded. Gemona itself lies at the foot of the rubble of the mountain ( Torrente Veliato ) at around  270  m slm

Classification, demarcation and neighboring mountain groups

The massif belongs to the Northern Julian Prealps , which extend between the Eisental (Canal del Ferro , lower Fella ) and upper Natisone / Nadiža in the Italian-Slovenian border area. The massif is either combined with the east adjoining Gran Monte - Stol -Zug to form a fringe alpine group Chiampon-Stol ( SOIUSA ), orographically more compact to the northern group Plauris - Musi , or in terms of landscape to the Prealpi del Torre (Plauris-Gran Monte).

Boundary

The southern foothills of the massif are already counted as part of the Friuli hill country (Friuli collinare) .

Outline and summit

The two main peaks are:

  • Monte Chiampon ( Cjampón , 1709  m slm ) itself, the more easterly peak
  • Monte Deneal ( Deneâl , 1703  m slm ), the more western peak

To the east the main ridge stretches out (among other things) in:

To the south is upstream, somewhat separated by the Torre sub -valley of the Torrente Vedronza and the Veliato near Gemona, via Magnano in Riviera and Artegna and around the valley of Montenars , separated by the Sella Foredor (Foredôr)  ( 1089  m slm ):

Northwest towards Venzone, separated by the Forca de Ledis  ( 758  m slm ):

Ascent and paths

The Alta Via CAI Gemona via ferrata (749, marked in 2011) runs over the main ridge of the Chiampon Stock . Approaches are possible from all valley locations, but the western flank is impassable. The mountain feet and foothills are easier hiking areas.
