The circular hike to Capanna Monte Bar begins in Albumo di Corticiasca. From here you first hike through the forest and then across alpine meadows to Alpe Musgatina. From there you continue to climb. There are no more trees around you and you have a clear view. The panorama of the Alps is breathtaking

This beautiful round tour takes you on meadow paths and single trails from one high alpine pasture to the next and you can hardly get enough of the panorama over the Val Bedretto. It is not for nothing that the "Strada degli Alpi" in the Bedretto valley is considered one of the most beautiful bike tours
