This exact spot (pin on the map) is mostly a steep hill. A vehicular dirt path runs just south of the pin, across it is plenty of brambley, flat, muddy areas. Local people do come around this area.

# Following a dirt path across an open field/ pasture, then passing through a row of trees and bushes;
 
# then crossing a dry river bed. The river bed is accessed from a well-used dirt ramp for offroad vehicles. The bed of the Tagliamento River itself is mostly pebbles and hikable. East of/ at the confluence "Degano" there is clean river water that is drinkable. From the vehicular bridge at Invillino, the water is no higher than knee height. Water levels might be lower in the summer, otherwise and probably good for bathing. River levels: https://earlyfloodalert.com/paw/index.html?commonid=friaul-540-it
 
#There is another vehicular dirt ramp on the other side adjacent to an inhabited house. Next to that is a pasture that is cordoned off. There is a constantly flowing tap directly next to the dirt path across from the building. Following the dirt path and turning right, the spot is just past another inhabited hut on the right hand side.

Hitchhiking around the area is easy. [[A23_(Italy)]] is accessed through Tolmezzo.

Malga Chiampis is a bivac hut. i don't suggest to have the gathering in the hut, but in the huge valley floor around it. in 2018 a thousand rainbow people gathered there, it's a huge open area at 1200m ASL, surrounded by peaks just shy of 2000m ASL. to get cellular reception one needs to hike up towards one of the peaks around (1 hour hike or a bit more)

! the place is about 5hours hike from the road, hiking trail begins close to Tramonti di Sopra!

there should be drinking water, else the rainbow gathering would not have been possible.

Someone will check the location again before the gathering. In case it is not suitable anymore (e.g. no water source) we have another location not too far as a backup.
