DESCRIPTION
:
The route begins on Trail S534 in Boss, near the man-made tunnel above San Bartolomeo. The uphill trail has switchbacks up to Profa Alta Saddle. From there, take Trail S541 to Bei Laghetti and then the Bormio 3000 cableway, which you can use to descend to Bormio. Many variations of this route lead to the Profa lakes. The trail can also be hiked in the reverse direction, so that the whole path is downhill. In addition, you can start from Valfurva or Sondalo and also reach the enchanting sight of the beautiful lakes.
