MARGUAREIS NATURAL PARK
The Marguareis Park, established in 1978, protects 7,900 hectares of alpine environment spanning the upper Pesio and Tanaro valleys and the municipalities of Chiusa Pesio, Briga Alta and Ormea. Since 2016, along with the Natural Park of the Maritime Alps, it has been part of the Ente di Gestione delle Aree protette delle Alpi Marittime. Its heart and symbol are the limestone massif of Marguareis, in the Ligurian Alps, which hosts one of the most important karst systems in Europe.
CHIANALE LAKES
CHIANALE LAKES
After Casteldelfino, the Valle Varaita reaches a fork: the left fork leads to Sant'Anna di Bellino, the right to Colle dell'Agnello, a well-known high-altitude pass open to cars. This second stretch, just a few kilometers beyond Lake Pontechianale, reaches Chianale, an enchanting alpine stone village. A vast plateau opens out to the west dotted with splendid alpine lakes reflecting the sun like gems set amongst pastures and rocks.
FRISSON LAKES
FRISSON LAKES
The main (and rare) lakes of the entire Valle Vermenagna lie above the lovely village of Palanfrè. This delightful itinerary moves up the secluded Albergh valley to the evocative Frisson lakes, nestled in splendid wide valley at the feet of the impressive pyramid of Monte Albergh itself.
