Upland of 13 lakes

will cross a fantastic forest and we’ll reach on Saturday the first two lakes. In order to reach the upland where the lakes are located, we can also use the cable car which makes the trekking very easy and suitable for all. The upland of 13 lakes has really 13 lakes, it is not only a name. We will sleep in a tent and on Sunday, according to our motivation we can enjoy the mountain staying near the lakes or climbing the majestic Cornour Peak(2876m). Another option is to sleep in Pellice Valley in the Soardi hut. In this way, we are not going to see the lakes but we’ll have a nice hut where to stay with the view of Monviso.

Upland of 13 Lakes: A place where lakes"grow" like mushrooms

The Upland of 13 lakes is a very special spot and has the advantage of being reached by a cable car. Even though this may cause the more crowded situation and the fact that animals stay away usually from this place, the upland of 13 lakes can be a gorgeous spot for everyone to spend a night in the mountains. We need to camp in one of the lakes to enjoy the sunset at above 2500 meters of altitude in the Germanasca Valley, only one hour away from Turin. Hiking in this place is a never forgetting experience!
