and untouched by tourists. With beautiful views of the Valle Orco,
this picture perfect place is ideal for a picnic in the countryside.
It connects also connects you with hill of Nivolet.

2,500 m above sea level, this plateau stretches for six kilometers
is dotted with numerous water bodies. These lakes and rivers are
a hub for all sorts of flora and fauna. |
| Valle di Piantonetto |
This imposing valley is a haven for mountain climbers. If mountain
climing isn’t your cup of tea, this place is still worth a
visit. The Becco di Valsoera and Becchi della Tribolazione and the
Teleccio all make the place extremely scenic and offer great views.

| Colle Sià |
Colle Sià is popular for two reasons – for the great
views of the beautiful Levanne glaciers and for the unique sightings
of the park’s animals. A well trodden mule-track leads you
from Ceresole Reale to Colle Sià. You can also continue on
this path to reach the top of Orco valley. |
