More of a stroll than a strenuous hike, this Val Gerola
route gives you a front row view of life on an Alpine pasture, including the
milking of the cows and the preparation of the local Bitto cheese inside one of
the characteristic huts called calecc. From
Rifugio Bar Bianco in Rasura at 1,510 metres of elevation, you’ll first walk to
Baita del Prato, before following signs for Val di Paiper up to Lago Culino at
1,959 metres and then Baita Culino at 2,042 metres. If you’re feeling
energetic, add on the Cima Rosetta at 2,142 metres of elevation, reachable from
either Baita del Prato or Baita Culino.
Start: Rifugio Bar Bianco (Rasura) 1510 m
