The Gardetta Pass connects the Unerzio Valley with the Gardetta Plateau. From this hill there are various paths that reach the surrounding peaks. The Gardetta Refuge is about 15 minutes from the hill, to get there just let yourself be led by the majestic profile of the Meja.
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.
