발페르가‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪18‬개의 천연기념물

Cima Mares에는 십자가와 중계기 외에는 별것 없지만, 그곳까지 올라가는 수고를 할 만한 풍경이 펼쳐집니다. 실제로 시야는 Maritime Alps에서 시작되며, 가시성이 좋을 때는 매우 선명하게 구별됩니다. 시선을 오른쪽으로 옮기면 Monviso, Cuneese의 많은 봉우리들, 그리고 Susa 계곡 하부와 마주하게 됩니다. 상부는 Orco 계곡과 Lanzo 계곡 사이의 분수령을 형성하는 Monte Soglio의 윤곽선에 가려져 있기 때문입니다. 오른쪽으로, Ceresole로 향하는 계곡 상부를 내려다보며 G. Paradiso의 위성들과 다른 작은 봉우리들을 감상할 수 있습니다. 이 봉우리들은 거의 모두 2500미터를 넘으며 장엄한 광경을 선사합니다.

Small intra-moraine lake, fed by rainwater in the small basin created by the Balteo Glacier in this moraine, which dates back more than one hundred thousand years. The name “paolet” in the local dialect means “small swamp” because over time this lake has partially filled with organic material created by the decomposition of aquatic vegetation. At the moment the water remains only in a ring outside the lake while in the center an islet has already formed: if there is no human intervention, the lake will gradually fill up completely. This is a site of great naturalistic importance for the many species that inhabit it, including the Pelobates fosco insubrico, a small toad at risk of extinction and for this reason the subject of a European protection project.

A spectacle of nature and history

Very panoramic, 360 degree view

Very panoramic summit with large 360 view, it's worth it

To reach the 2,231 meters of altitude of Punta Quinseina Sud, also known as Punta Quinseina di Santa Elisabetta, you follow a beautiful path which, although not particularly difficult, has quite steep sections, sometimes on stony ground, and starts from Pian del Lupo. If the mists allow it, the panorama from this point is extraordinary, ranging from the Canavese plain to the Alps. However, even more fascinating is the somewhat exposed path along the ridge that leads to the northern tip. Running along the ridge is an amazing experience!
