Itinerary description

Park at the parking (3h/day) or along the route (not free as well). Be there early, the area gets crowded very soon and the parking spots are really limited. Follow the route towards Lago Branchino, there are a few alternative routes that passes along the forest but all of them points to Lago Branchino. The first half of the route is a road, so not very steep and really enjoying. When the slope increase, you can either follow the "hike route", but it might be crowded with pedestrians: the openness of the route allows you to adventure in the wild. Eventually, you will reach the top lago Branchino. When you're done, simply turn back and start the ski adventure. Keep the right just after leaving the Lago Branchino, then keep left in order to return to the previous route. Whatch out for non-skiers along the descent! There's both a bar/restaurant when the route crosses a rivers few times, but there's also a bar/restaurant at the parking lot.
