    Hiking

    This path that descends to the Mongioie Refuge is really very scenic. From here you can see the villages of the valley floor and admire the jagged walls of the mountains.

    This path is steep and very slippery, when we climbed it. Hard to find the marked path between the rubble. Definitely not suited for everyone, but mightily satisfying to top!
