Lake Serrù

Highlight • Lake

It is located along the road that from Ceresole Reale climbs to the Nivolet hill. It is part of the complex of artificial lakes (Lake Agnel, Lake Serrù, Lake Ceresole, Lake Teleccio, Lake d'Eugio and Lake Valsoera) and which feed various hydroelectric plants. The Pian della Ballotta refuge rises on a rocky spur above the lake. (Wikipedia)

But be careful when you arrive here it's not over, there are the last 7 km to do to get to the Nivolet hill ...

Lake Agnel

Highlight • Lake

Leaving on the left the signs for the glaciological path of the Serrù lake, and on the right the Glaciomuseo, proceed quickly until you reach the equally magnificent Agnel lake.

View of Lago Serrù and Lago Agnel from Colle del Nivolet

Highlight • Viewpoint

Magnificent pass in the Gran Paradiso National Park. Fantastic mountains between Piedmont and the Aosta Valley. The pass can only be accessed by road from the south side (Piedmont).
Sweeping little SP50 with great views.

Rifugio Città di Chivasso (currently closed)

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The Città di Chivasso Refuge is located a little higher than the Savoia Refuge. From here you can enjoy a truly remarkable view of the Nivolet lakes.

Colle del Nivolet

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Leave performance anxiety aside and take a few stops to enjoy the surrounding panorama: the Colle del Nivolet is one of the most panoramic climbs in the Alps. The final hairpin bends overlooking the lakes are truly special.
