Excursion to the Zamboni - Zappa hut from Pecetto di Macugnaga

Visible even hundreds of kilometers away, the eastern slope of Monte Rosa can be said to be the only Himalayan wall in Europe: an immense, dizzying bastion of rock and ice that rises for more than two kilometers at the head of Valle Anzasca.

It is therefore no coincidence that the proposed trip is always very busy, also thanks to the chairlift that significantly reduces the time to climb. In practice it is possible to reach, without difficulty, right under the wall, in a unique scenario not only in Italy, but in the entire continent.
From Macugnaga (60 km from Verbania) continue by car to the hamlet Pecetto, at 1358 meters above sea level. We then walk along an unmistakable dirt road (heading west) that goes into the woods, reaching the plateau of Alpe Burki (about 1600 meters).
The climb continues along a comfortable path in the Rado Forest, up to the basin where the building of the CAI Saronno Hut is located. A last short climb then leads to the Belvedere plateau, located on the morainic bump that divides the language of the homonymous glacier in two: altitude of 1940 meters, 1.30 hours from Pecetto.
Note: the Belvedere, on which there is a private refuge restaurant, is also reached by a chairlift that starts in Pecetto, of course can be used during periods of operation.
Continuing the excursion, from the Belvedere you reach, always on a comfortable path, the southern branch of the glacier, which you cross without difficulty on morainic debris.
Once reached the opposite moraine, the path heads south, reaching the now nearby Rifugio Zamboni—Zappa at the Alpe Pedriola: 2065 meters altitude, 0.45 hours from the Belvedere, in total 2.15 hours from Pecetto.
The return takes place along the same path as the climb, and takes 30 minutes to the Belvedere, and about 1.30 hours total up to Pecetto (not using the chairlift).
Variation: from the hut we recommend completing the trip reaching the not far Lake of Locce (altitude 2209 meters), and the wonderful & amp; nbsp; Ephemeral Lake, both reachable in about 30 minutes on a convenient walk south, along trail tracks.

Travel time: 3.45 hours - (1.15 using the chairlift).

The sacred mountain of Varallo Sesia

Sacro Monte of Varallo Sesia

Piedmont is the region that, despite having so much to offer, has not yet been discovered by tourists who leave seduce by the best known goals. Yet it is a serious mistake because in Piedmont there are real treasures of human ingenius including the Sacro Monte of Varallo Sesia, an exceptional complex of buildings formed by 43 chapels located along a path that is immersed in the green of a hill above the small town, Varallo.

The foundation of the Sacro Monte is closely linked to the nature and faith of medieval man as well as to the political situation of that era when the pilgrimage in places of worship becomes difficult and dangerous. So from the 15th century projects began to be born whose role is to present to the faithful the facts of the Passion of Christ and give the opportunity to follow his steps without the need to make a tiring and expensive journey to the Holy Land.

This idea finds its expression in the inscription at the entrance to the tomb of Jesus where it is written: Ut hic Jerusalem vidat here wandering nequit — “For here to see Jerusalem who cannot pilgrim you.

Regardless of the religious aspect, Sacro Monte di Varallo is an extraordinary show for art lovers.

The complex of the buildings consists of about fifty chapels with 400 groups of figures and about 4000 figures that appear in the fascinating frescoes by great artists such as Gaudenzio Ferrari, Giulio Cesare Luini, Giovanni and Melchiorre d'Enrico, Michele Prestinari, the Rovere brothers known as “the Flemish”, Antonio d' Enrico called “the Tanzio”, Pier Francesco Mazzucchelli called “the Morazzone” and many others that over the course of a couple of centuries attributed to the birth of this & ldquo; New Jerusalem.”

The Sacro Monte has another interesting aspect: the naturalistic one. The complex itself stands on a rocky threshold that dominates the entire lower Valsesia up to Monte Fenera and, towards no

The Rocca di Vogogna rises on a rocky spur, from which the whole country dominates from above. It is assumed to have been built around the 5th century, in Roman times. Unfortunately, in the 16th century it was destroyed and today only ruins can be seen.
