Description

Our tips for the stage:

  • Palazzo Castelmur: The Palazzo Castelmur looks like it is from another time. It can be visited in summer - but it is also worthwhile to see it from the outside.

  • Stone slab path "La Plotta": The stone slab path was an important connection to Soglio before the road was built. In addition, the view of the Sciora group and Pizzo Badile is magnificent.

  • Soglio: Arrival in Soglio feels like a dream. Discover the many faces of this historic mountain village.

In the forest just after Vicosoprano, you pass the old execution site of Bergell. On comfortable paths, you reach Borgonovo, the birthplace of the famous painter and sculptor Alberto Giacometti. The cemetery on the outskirts of the village houses, among many other family members, his grave.

Further in Stampa, you will find the valley museum Ciäsa Granda with the Giacometti-Varlin room, and in the district of Coltura, a visit to the Palazzo Castelmur is recommended. From here, it first goes on forest roads to the hamlet of Caccior, where a small hiking trail branches off. Here too, historical evidence is soon to be seen: the so-called "stone slab path" was an important connection up to Soglio before the road was built. With a spectacular view of the Sciora group and Pizzo Badile, you finally reach Soglio.
