GPS coordinates are approximate.
Side valley, drained by Zösenbach/Torrente Cesa, located to the west of Lappach/Lappago.
The area from the northwestern sector of Zösen-Alm/Alpe Cesa to the eastern slope of Schwarze Riffl/Scoglio Nero and Rote Riffl/Scoglio Rosso is famous for the presence of Alpine fissures rich in crystals of epidote, byssolite, albite, and rare apatite and stilbite. Another interesting mineral association, typical for Zösen-Alm/Alpe Cesa, consists of tabular ilmenite and whitish calcite crystals.
Alpine fissures containing crystals of hyalin quartz, calcite, pericline, apatite, rutile, and titanite are found, to the N and NE of Zösen-Alm/Alpe Cesa, in the area Eisbruggspitze/Cima Ponte di Ghiaccio-Napfspitze/Cima Cadini-Pfeifholderspitze/Cima della Pipa and Seebergl/Col del Lago-Zösner Wiesen.
