モリアの峠・トップ11

pass that separates the Sessera Valley from the Sesia Valley

Very beautiful crossing point and junction in the presence of the Corno Lakes. From here you can descend towards Alagna along the paths of the Stofful Superiore and Inferiore mountain pastures, or towards the classic Pianalunga descent.

Connection point between Valsesia and Valsessera.

Beautiful pass with Lake Corno, difficult climb and route not for everyone. Excellent training and good driving skills are required.

The Turlo hill is located at an altitude of 2,738 metres, between the Corno Piglimò to the south and the Corni di Faller to the north, connecting the Quarazza valley with the upper Sesia valley. The pass path connects the two centers of Walser origin of Alagna and Macugnaga and is an important part of the Monte Rosa Tour. The cart track was created between 1925 and 1931 by a military regiment. Historically, it has been a fundamental link with the Anzasca Valley, used in the past for both commercial and migratory purposes. It is said that the Walser settlers who founded the first settlements in Alagna passed through here between the 13th and 14th centuries. The name is curious because in the Walser language "Türli" means "small door". Although the terrain is steep, the rocky trail is well maintained and not very technical.

Climb not easy at times with steep slopes and several stones on the path.
