Alpe Valmeriana, located at about 1,800 meters above sea level, is a place of extraordinary natural beauty and historical interest. Surrounded by green pastures and coniferous forests, the mountain pasture offers breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains, among which the majestic Cima Nera (Cime Noire) stands out.

On the south-western slopes of Cima Nera, at an altitude of between 2,335 and 2,340 meters, are the remains of an ancient settlement of the Salassi, a Celtic population that inhabited the region before the Roman conquest. This archaeological site, known as the Salassi Village of Cime Noire, is made up of about thirty dry stone huts, arranged on a panoramic terrace in the Clapey di Ghiabou, a stony ground devoid of vegetation. The strategic position of the village, hidden from view from the valley floor and with wide views of the surrounding territory, suggests a surveillance or refuge function during periods of conflict, such as those between the Salassi and the Romans between 143 and 25 BC.

It should be noted that near the Alpe there is a picnic area, also equipped with a shelter.
