    Hiking

    The Boerio Bivouac is located on the shores of Lake Mongioia and is an excellent base for reaching the Mongioia and Salza peaks. Its octagonal plan makes it unmistakable. It has recently been restored.

    Incredibile beautiful Bivacco, very modern (built in 1992) just 5m above Lake Mongioia

    Hiking

    The night at the Boerio refuge is worth the hike alone; ibex approach the refuge as early as late afternoon.

    For the return to Maljasset, it's best to do a loop via the Salsa pass and descend via Lac du Loup (+200m elevation gain and 1.5 hours extra). The route descends through the northern scree slopes of Rubren, where snow patches linger late in the season; the terrain is extremely rocky!
