Highlights and tour details

The trail starts next to a stone building (arrow for "Sentiero Videsott"), on the right - going up - of the road that goes from Ceresole Reale to Colle del Nivolet, a hundred metres before the bridge over rio della Percia, which falls on the vast basin of Chiapili di Sopra with a spectacular waterfall. Going up, between green alder shrubs, you pass some ruins (altitude 1858 m). Then, with an upward crossing on the left among stony grounds, you reach the pastures of Alpe Pertica, in front of the northern walls of Levanne. You skirt Rio della Percia for a stretch, turn right and head towards alpe Fumetta (2165 m). Turn right and head towards Alpe Pianass (2294 m), at the edges of the stony ground at the foot of punta Rocchetta (2922 m). Turn left towards Alpe Muanda (2350 m) and from this point the path climbs first to the right and then to the left until it comes to the old royal hunting road near Alpe Comba, which connects Nivolet to Noasca across the hills of Terra and Porta http://www.renzovidesott.it/pngp/.
