Route description
Leaving the village of Rimasco, just after the church of Santa Croce, cross the Egua stream and arrive at Sponde del Lago. Proceed as you enter a deciduous forest and in about 45 minutes you reach Pian della Ratta, 1140m, the arrival station of the chairlift and starting point of the fun summer bobsleigh, with the Alpe Campo Refuge.
Try the adrenaline-pumping fun bobsled on rails, ideal for a fun-filled day!
You cross the shelf keeping to the left and then climb up the edge of the Vecchia meadow to enter the woods and ascend it to come out in the vicinity of the Alpe Pianali hut, 1360m. You keep to the edge of the forest and shortly afterwards return, turning left, thus arriving at Alpe Campo, 1390m.
Wanting to continue the itinerary beyond the alp, turn right up the slope and reach a saddle on the slopes of Cima Castello. Following the ridge to the right to the summit of the hump, at Siunal, at an altitude of 1492m, you have a magnificent view of Monte Rosa, Tagliaferro and the entire Sermenza Valley.
