Once you leave the car in the confortable square of Campiglia Soana, take the clear dirt road that leads to the Pian dell'Azaria. The path, simple and undemanding, presents only a few climb needed to reach the broad plateau of the basin, at the foot of the rocky ridges of Rancio. A typical deciduous forest mixes with conifers to then show only beautiful specimens of spruce and larch forests up to Barmaion. In addition to the alpine pasture, the forest gives way to the alpine meadow covered with snow, on which it's easy to sight quiet chamois grazing.
Be careful crossing the canals in case of non settled snow.
Not to be missed:
- Alpine pasture
- glacial basin and hanging valley
- glacial waterfall
