アルジェンテーラの峠・トップ20

It can be reached on a good, not difficult path in about 1.40 hours, and offers an excellent view of Chiappera and the surrounding Dolomite peaks.

For everyone, easy tour

The Gardetta Pass, at over 2,400 meters above sea level in the Cottian Alps, connects the Vallone di Unerzio with the Meja-Gardetta plateau. If you are following the itinerary we recommend from Canosio, we suggest you reach the pass to admire the view and then return to the Gardetta refuge. The pass was a battle site during the First World War and the refuge itself is a construction of military origin, renovated about forty years ago, today it welcomes you for a delicious restorative break.

Colle del Preit welcomes you at the gates of the Gardetta plateau. The landscape here seems almost lunar with the rock that rises imposingly among the soft green meadows. You are at over 2000 meters above sea level, the climb to get there requires the right amount of effort and the atmosphere is truly unique. Admiring the panorama that surrounds you sharpens your sight and hearing, the whistle of some marmots reveals their presence among the rocks.

A very challenging climb with asphalt in very poor condition.

We also went up from Chiappera, but it's no problem for an experienced hiker. The path up to the pass is very doable, there are no exposed areas on the whole tour with great views. Highly recommended!!! 😄

Colle Greguri, at about 2350 m, offers a circular hike around Rocca Provenzale, symbol of the Maira Valley. With breathtaking views and flower-filled slopes, it offers a spectacular view of the vertical wall of Cima Provenzale.

I have done this stretch uphill and downhill... and the perspective is completely different. The first time I crossed it was on my way up to Fauniera from Demonte. I remember it with great emotion. Going up to Fauniera after having climbed Colle della Lombarda in Italy was very hard. Also the weather was not on my side because during the whole climb it was unbearably hot and just as I reached the top a thunderstorm and very strong hail started. I crossed this stretch of rocks in thick fog but knowing that I was going through a corridor of rocks. I remember being amazed and very excited because I was about to reach the top of Fauniera. The second time I crossed it was downhill on a splendid summer day with blue sky and heat. The views of the road through the rocks are impressive. Now it is only up to you to visit it for the first time... or again. I want to go back... and I hope to do it by bike.
