Long tour to the westernmost summit in Val Bregaglia
Those who love to stay overnight in style and enjoy an extensive breakfast buffet will get their money’s worth in Soglio, a showcase village in Val Bregaglia. However, it is better to indulge in these treats after climbing Pizz Gallagiun, as this tour requires a very early start. Up and down there is a total of 2000 metres to walk. Moreover, the itinerary is exposed to the south so that even in the fall hikers are sure to sweat in torrents. But the splendid view the summit offers is worth the effort.
Route description
Additional information
- Difficulty / Material
-
The trail across Pass da la Prasgnola between Soglio and Val Madris is marked white-red-white, although there are stretches with only faint paths. Short passages are equipped with chains. An old trail may cause confusion. From the col to the summit there is no trail to speak of, just a faint path and cairns.
