The Monte Rosa is the most extensive massif of the Alps, the second highest in Europe; one of the most beautiful and accessible valleys is Otro Valley.
This is a ’hanging valley’ due to a typical morphology produced by glacial erosion and also for the views that you can admire.
In the large plateau (altitude around 1,660 m), framed by a jagged range of mountains including Tagliaferro (2964 m asl) and the White Horn, (3320 m asl), are six small villages preserving beautiful examples of Walser architecture. A splendid little church of the XVI century, the richly frescoed façade, surrounded by the typical mountain chalets and dominated by the peaks is the first image upon arriving.
Itinerary:
Trekking from Alagna to Pranmisura (2:00 hours)
Back to Alpe Follù (45 mins)
Stop for lunch lunch (lunch not included)
Free time in the afternoon for visits or trekking to viewpoint of the old cable car (40 mins go and back)
Return to the starting point and the car around 16:45
Transfer by car back to Arona.
