R74 Malghera » Rifugio Schiazzera
  |   8h30   |   24 km   |   912 m   |   763 m

From the high pasture at Malghera a comfortable, gentle trail, about half way up the right hand slopes of eastern Val Grosina, leads past the pastures at Grasso di Pedruna, Guinzana and Piana and then a dirt track leads to Alpe Carette. An old military mule track provides views over Valtellina as the walker follows it to the lake at Schiazzera, an ideal place for a picnic.

    Restauration à l'Alpe Salina ? aléatoire, il était déjà fermé le samedi 27.08.11.
    Variante au terme de cette longue étape, depuis le col qui domine la cabane Schiazzera vous pouvez économiser 1h et demie en descendant directement vers l'alpage par un sentier très convenable. Mais vous ne verrez pas le beau lac.

    Restoration Alpe Salina? random, it was already closed Saturday, 8/27/11. Variant at the end of this long stage, since the cervix which dominates the cabin Schiazzera you can save 1 hour and a half down directly to the pasture by a path very convenient. But you will not see the beautiful lake.
