From Malghera, leave the trail at the bottom of the valley to take the one that, after ascending, continues halfway up the mountainside along the right orographic side of Val di Sacco (right side when facing downvalley). After a ridge, the path becomes less evident but you should arrive at the vast flat area at the head of the valley without any problems. Come to the northern edge of the valley. A rock mound indicates a clearer trail, which is marked by signs. This trail goes up towards the left to go around and past the rocky barrier on which you can already see the bivouac. You can get there by crossing towards the right.
