Tips
A new bivouac, built by the municipalities of Bramans and Giaglione (Turin) as part of the project called "On the trail of Hannibal", financed with funds from the ALCOTRA cross-border program, was inaugurated on 4 October 2014 near Colle Clapier ( 2477 m). The Clapier is probably considered the pass used by Hannibal to cross the Alps in 218 BC.

This cross-border bivouac is located on Italian soil near Col Clapier, near the French border. The easiest way to reach it is from the Piccolo Moncenisio pass, and after Lake Savine, it's another half-hour's trail.
