Tips and suggestions
Always check the weather before you leave.Roadbook
Starting from Alpe Devero, follow the signs for Crampiolo; from there, head up toward the Codelago dam. Continue along the lakeshore until you reach the mountain pasture at the end of the lake; at this point, follow the signs for Pianboglio. Once you reach the lake, climb up the small stone dam using the chain provided; at the fork, turn left. Climb for a few minutes until you reach a flat basin; after crossing it, begin the descent until you reach the opposite shore of Codelago. Following the wide trail, you’ll reach the small dam, and from there a short descent begins, leading back to Crampiolo and finally down to Alpe Devero.
