Alpe Larecchio in Valle Vogna is a hidden gem.

A trekking excursion starting from the Alpine hamlet of Sant’Antonio, in Valle Vogna, in the heart of Valsesia in Piedmont, and climbing toward Alpe Larecchio via the evocative Napoleon Bridge. With the Guidders, you will walk along mountain trails and old mule tracks through larch woods, pastures, and open slopes, with sweeping views over the valley and the Walser landscape. The route is a continuous ascent, with steep sections, uneven ground, rocks, and potentially slippery spots when wet: sure footing and good fitness are required.
