뷰가드 호수 최고의 러닝 경로

Usellières는 Valgrisenche의 상류에서 도로로 접근할 수 있는 마지막 장소입니다. 숲, 목초지, 알프스 봉우리로 둘러싸여 있으며, Rutor 산괴와 그 빙하 기슭의 고요하고 조용한 환경에 자리 잡고 있습니다. 이곳부터 계곡은 닫히고 오직 오솔길로만 이어집니다.

The Rifugio de L'Epée, opened in 1988 by brothers Ivo and Dario Gerbelle, welcomes hikers from mid-June to late September. The trail to the refuge passes through a majestic forest of ancient larch trees and offers spectacular views of the Bouc Valley, Punta Rabuigne, the Lepère Glacier, and the Becca di Mont Forciaz.

The dirt road runs along Lake Beauregard and the Dora di Valgrisenche River and is perfect for hiking, mountain biking, and gravel biking. The route offers stunning views of the lake and surrounding mountains.

Gradually, a beautiful view of the valley and the Chalet de l'Épée refuge, which awaits us further on, is revealed.

One of Italy's most ambitious energy engineering projects, yet never fully exploited: landslides similar to those of Vajont were detected right from the initial tests, and the capacity was limited from the planned 70 million cubic meters to just 2 million (which is why the village of Fornet, re-emerged from the lake's waters, is still visible). Due to the dam's failure to utilize its full capacity, it was lowered by 52 meters between 2011 and 2015.

A clearing at the end of the Valgrisenche road, from here you can enjoy an excellent view of the artificial lake and the surrounding mountains.

Very irregular and decidedly challenging climb, especially in the initial kilometres which have steep gradients and, for over a kilometre, greater than 10%.

Last town in Val di Rhemes; the surrounding environment is worth the effort of the climb
