The Cogne Valley
The pastures of Gran Nomenon
The impressive north side of Grivola, one of the most beautiful mountains of the region, trails down with its glacier to the green expanse of pastures of the grazing area of Gran Nomenon. The contrast of colours, the pastures, the woods and the chance of seeing grazing animals, make this area one of the pearls of the park.
Vittorio Sella and Herbetet mountain lodges
The excursion leading from Valnontey to Vittorio Sella mountain lodge, is the most popular in the park. In the evening or early in the morning around the nearby Lago del Lauson, it is not difficult to find ibex. Don't miss the beautiful crossing to the farmhouses of Herbetet, with magnificent views of the glaciers at the top of the valley. The path, quite open and equipped with some steel handrails, should be taken with caution.
