Lou Viage: Stage 5B Rifugio Carbonetto - Sambuco

Loading...

Highlights and tour details

From Rifugio Carbonetto you set off again to reach Colle Valcavera. Once you reach the hill you can take the path on the right along Vallone dei Monti up to Colle della Vallonetta and then reach Colle Fauniera on the watershed between Valle Maira and Valle Grana. Continuing along the new route that completes the Lou Viage itinerary you proceed in a South - Easterly direction in Val Chiaffrea and going through Vallone della Madonna along a splendid alpine landscape, you reach the centre of Sambuco with its stage stop-off place. An interesting alternative path leads instead from Rifugio Carbonetto along a path of great botanical interest to Colle Serour and Colle Mura delle Vinche at the foot of Mount Nebius, where Lou Viage already passes. From the pass, you can reach Neirassa where the stop-off place is located at the former rectory, which has been renovated.
