Forte del Gran Serin

one of the many hills along the military road

At just over 3,000 meters above sea level, Monte Albergian is by no means the highest in the so-called "Cottian Alps," but it still offers an impressive panorama. Like many other mountains, it is crowned with a summit cross. The longitudinal and transverse beams are formed by a metal frame, which has been reinforced with X-shaped struts in the interstices for stability. A circle or ring is also attached around the intersection of the two beams. It's not a huge cross (at what I estimate to be 3 to 3.5 meters high), but it sits majestically on the mountain summit and is clearly visible.

It is practically located on top of the remains of the fort of the same name. From here it is possible to see other forts that make up the Assietta defensive line, as well as the usual panorama of the surrounding peaks. It can be reached very easily as the area is served by a series of military roads

A hill that goes up a forest road, sometimes rocky, goes up through the heart of the Great Forest in the Parco Naturale della Gran Bosco di Salbertrand (Natural Park of the Great Forest of Salbertrand) to the Col Blegier (pass). Because it is a forest road, the trail is not technically difficult, but there is 640 m (2,100 ft) of climbing in this 7.7 km

Alternative road to go down towards Sestriere, instead of the Bordin path

At just over 3,000 meters above sea level, Monte ALBERGIAN is by no means the largest in the so-called "Cottian Alps", but still offers an impressive panorama. Like many other mountains, it is crowned with a summit cross. The longitudinal and cross beams are formed by a metal frame, which has been reinforced by x-shaped struts in the interior spaces for stability. An additional circle or ring is attached around the intersection of both bars. It's not a huge cross (at 3 to 3.5 meters high, I estimate), but it sits majestically on the mountain peak and is clearly visible.

The Albergian, located between Val Chisone and Valle di Massello, offers a spectacular panorama and a challenging but rewarding ride. The peak, visible from across the valley, is worth the climb. It is essential to plan carefully with the weather in mind, which can change rapidly, compromising visibility.
