Tips

Punta Prarosso is an underlying relief on the south-southeast summit of Cima dell'Angiolino, which functions as a watershed between Valle del Tesso and Valle del Malone.
Description
From Saccona 886 m, take the mule track to the right of the church in a northeasterly direction, hilly on a steep slope. Pass the Meini huts 985 m and equipped. Cross a dirt road, continue on meadows and maintain the maximum incline until you come to a majestic chestnut tree, then follow the mule track that enters the forest. Once you reach the dirt road that connects Saccona to Prarosso, which at that point descends to San Grato, follow it for about 50 meters. Leave the road at the first right turn to reach the Prarosso Huts 1081m up the path. Continue on the dirt road until just before it ends. Turn left in a northwesterly direction, after 50m follow the steepest slope in a northwesterly direction until you reach Punta Prarosso 1497m.
