The Rifugio Oratorio di Cunéy, perched at 2,652 meters in the heart of the Saint-Barthélemy valley, stands next to the sanctuary of the Madonna delle Nevi, one of the highest in Europe. Built on the ruins of a chapel dating back to 1656, it now welcomes hikers with simple warmth, wooden rooms, and home-cooked food, becoming a refuge and place of pilgrimage. The path to reach it from Lignan or Porliod winds through larch forests, pastures, and alpine lakes, up to the panoramic Col du Salvé, a prelude to the Cunéy basin, where the surrounding peaks protect this wild and sacred corner. In a single dive, sacredness merges with the mountain warmth: here the silence is profound, interrupted only by the wind and prayers, and every night captures the essence of haute montagne and alpine simplicity. At the back, a winter shelter (open all year round) is available to hikers who, having reached this place, wish to stop for the night, although the refuge and chapel are closed during the winter and low season.

near the refuge, the oratory is a witness to mountain civilization. Worth seeing are the ex-votos of the locals. Always open, the oratory reflects the great sacredness of the places and the mountains around.

Railway over the Dora. Worse were the consequences of the previous floods. The cycle path was no longer recognisable and transformed into a single sandy plain.

It's almost unbelievable how much current there is on that hydroelectric canal.

Be careful, after flooding some parts are still destroyed

Beautiful cycle path, excellent example of how public money can be spent well. The stretch closest to the Dora, immediately after Septumian, is currently covered in sand after the last flood of the river at the beginning of the summer

Very nice and welcoming, easily reachable on foot

This railway bridge that runs over the Dora River allows you to cycle under the passing trains and always alongside the river.
