ヴァンゾーンコンサンカルロの峠・トップ8

Was worshipped by smugglers

The Monte Moro Pass is located on the border between Switzerland and Italy, connecting the Saas Valley in Valais to the Anzasca Valley in Piedmont. The unique feature of this pass is that it is accessible via a medieval mule track. The route and photos are available at: https://treksrandos.fr/alpes/valais/alpes-pennines/col-de-monte-moro/

Pass connecting Valle Barranca, Valsesia and Valle Anzasca. Suggestive step in a very fascinating wild area.

When the golden statue emerges from the fog... great!

Very nice view of Italy!

Prime location to look forward to. Enjoy the beautiful 360° panoramic views. At an altitude of 2,239 meters, this is your reward for standing here.

Colle d'Egua, at 2,239 meters above sea level, is a connection between Fobello and Carcoforo, known for the magnificent panorama it offers on Monte Rosa, which here exhibits all its peaks exceeding 4,000 metres. In this area there is also a bivouac that bears the same name as the hill. The surrounding trails vary between easy and technical sections, but most of them are suitable for running. The shortest route to reach this splendid panorama is from Carcoforo, but it is also possible to take a longer itinerary starting from Ceppo Morelli.

The Monte Moro pass, located at 2,868 meters above sea level on the border between Italy and Switzerland, is characterized by the presence of the Madonnina placed on a rock spur, which represents the symbol of the pass. From here you have a wonderful view, with Italy on one side and the Saas Valley, Switzerland, on the other. You can admire the imposing east face of Monte Rosa. I advise you to arrive early, as after midday the clouds tend to lift from Italy. The terrain on both sides is not particularly technical, except for the summit itself, where there are chains to aid passage.
