Beautiful hike that passes through woods and fabulous landscapes.

Since I forgot to …

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!

September 14, 2024,Camminata: Alpe del Viceré- Cima Palanzone e ritorno

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.
