Subjects : Chamois, ibex, marmots, ermine, Dipper, Black Grouse, Ptarmigan, Bearded Vulture, during the winter you can find traces of the Wolf.

Recommended equipment : Ibex enough for a 50mm, crowding the trails and leave a few meters closer to Camosci and birds from 300mm up. For landscapes a good wide angle of 28mm down.

Best months : In the spring to photograph the small mountain goats in lactation and birds, in winter for landscapes and some ermine snow.

How to get there : Those coming from the Po Valley to take the Torino-Savona motorway E74 - A33 towards Carmarthen and Cuneo. Exit at St. Alban Stura to continue SP3 direction of Cuneo, Morozzo, Castelletto Stura and Cuneo. From Italy with the SS 20 to Borgo San Dalmazzo. This center is located at the entrance of the three valleys in which there are four areas of the Park: Vernante (Vermenagna Valley), Valdieri and Entracque (Valle Gesso), Aisone (Valle Stura). With the SS 20 del Colle di Tenda, towards Limone Piemonte, you reach Vernante (17 km). A Valdieri and Entracque you reach the provincial n. 20 that separates upstream of Borgo San Dalmazzo from the SS 20 and up the valley Chalk (from Borgo: Valdieri 9 km, 15 km Entracque). For Aisone we reach (32 km) along the SS 21 del Colle della Maddalena. For those coming from the south west of the most direct access is through the Valley Roia and the tunnel del Colle di Tenda.

Visits : You pay for parking in the summer resort lake of the ruins, there are few euro and contribute to the life of the park.

Notes : I highly recommend a visit to the wildlife center Men and Wolves (Section resort Casermette) shows the wolf and fence with watchtower with some captive wolves / care, it is not easy to see them but if you're lucky you'll get a memorable photo.
