ボッチョレートの峠・トップ7

pass that separates the Sessera Valley from the Sesia Valley

Mandatory passage for the ascent to Tagliaferro and to be used as a reference. From here the ascent to the mountain becomes stony and requires surefootedness.

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

Connection point between Valsesia and Valsessera.

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.

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.
