Rank : 7.8 (average on 8 votes)

Coordinates : 44.57442,6.975411 (Open in Google Maps)

Subjects : Deer, marmots, chamois, eagles, stoats and a remarkable flowering in the spring. The trails are very interesting and various difficulties, but all quite high (1600-3100 m.). Many landscapes and, on the hill of the Lamb horses let loose.

Recommended equipment : The destination is fairly high altitude and walking are different for both panoramas for trouble. So watch the weights ... a grandagolo for the views and 300 (perhaps with the \ '1 .4 x) are recommended. ALSO bring a useful macro for flowering and the many species of insects, especially in late spring.

Best months : From May to October, with particular attention to the month of June, CIE in the transition from spring to summer. In fact, given \ 's height (1,800 / 3,000 meters) the best show the nature of the offers at this time.

How to get there : From Turin in a southerly direction on the A6, exit at Fossano. From here we continue to Castiglione Saluzzo. Once in Castiglione continue on the road 8 to Casteldelfino, where is the junction for Bellino (the road ends a few miles. Later Bellino, from there continue on foot).

Visits : The area is not part of any park and is not subject to monitored inputs.

Notes : I discovered this place wandering around in the car ... a magical place! The Varaita is one of three Italian Occitan valleys (where they spoke the language of \ 'Oc, derived from the Gaelic). Most older people will still talk about it in a completely incomprehensible dialect, not of Latin origin. Where the road ends, after Bellino, begins a walk is not difficult from dozens of marmots (fairly confident) that leads to a valley full of deer and chamois (I've fotagrafati grazing together). If you go ahead and do not turn to Bellino arrive at Colle \ 's Lamb, a step that leads to France with a street unforgettable scollina to over 3,000 meters. above sea level.
