Trail Reviews
Beautiful hike that passes through woods and fabulous landscapes. The little church on the top is worth the effort of the climb!
Excursion suitable for all including dogs even if the climb to dos de la mula and the last 600 meters before Palanzone have a significant slope, there is no water along the way but at the foot of Palanzone there is the Riella refuge (check if it is open) where you can find something to drink. Since I forgot to start Komoot there will be about 1.5 km to go.
Always beautiful places, nothing difficult even if some steep climbs are worth it! Too many people for my taste, but given the practicability and simplicity of the paths and the various open refuges it's understandable! A nearby place to open the season of the next more challenging spring excursions!
Because of work I always let too much time pass between my walks or bike rides... Today I decided to move! Windy and cool day but the Palanzone tour is always a great workout. The view towards the Alps is wonderful, the photos from my cell phone do less than zero.
