Orsiera Natural Park Snowshoeing

Snowshoeing is a fantastic activity bringing you in the mountain silence even in the cold season near Torino, Italy. Orsiera
DISPLAY FULL DESCRIPTION
Natural Park Snowshoeing is an amazing opportunity to live three days of silence while most of the mountain lovers will be skiing: the luxury of solitude and pure wilderness. In this specific case, we will reach the Orsiera bivouac hut at 2000 meters of altitude. A small hut 6 Km and 3 hours of walk far from every human activity. The shelter is a 10-bed hut with a small wooden stove. The area next to the refuge is populated by animals also in winter and will be not rare to see chamois and ibexes and many even deer. The second night depends on our energy and will. There is the chance to go to sleep in a mountain lodge with people serving us the food if this is open(it depends on the conditions). In case of very good conditions, we could move firther in Susa Valley to reach the Avanzà Shelter at the border with France. This hut is 5-6 hours of walk away from the car and need the good condition of participants and also of the snow: in case of soft snow or powder the hut in unreachable. In this case, we will change our target going at Balma shelter in Val Sangone.
