WHY THIS HIKE
The Cima Bossola loop from Rueglio
From the center of Rueglio, the ascent begins on a dirt road that, with a series of hairpin turns, leads us towards an increasingly expansive view of the Canavese area, with Turin and Monviso on the horizon.
Group chat a couple of days before
Come alone, leave with new friends
The experience
The climb becomes more challenging in the second part, up to the Case and the Colletto Bossola. From here, we can ascend to Cima Bossola, from which the panorama is even more breathtaking.
On the descent, after a very panoramic stretch of ridge, we reach the Rifugio Cima Bossola, where we can refresh ourselves with a hot lunch before taking the mule track that leads us back to the village, completing a large loop.

Easy
Perfect for those who want to enjoy nature without too much effort. Short, well-marked trails with gentle slopes. No technical difficulties, just a desire to walk, breathe in the fresh air, and share the day with a group.
Ideal for: Beginners, families, those who want to take their first steps in trekking.
Easy Plus
A little faster pace, but still accessible. Slightly longer routes or with a few more hills, requiring some walking experience. The terrain is always easy and safe.
Ideal for: Those who walk regularly and want to challenge themselves a little.
Intermediate — this outing
Here we enter the world of true trekking. Steeper climbs, stretches on uneven or longer trails that require stamina. The physical effort is medium to high, and the fatigue is noticeable... but so is the satisfaction!
Ideal for: Those who already have experience and a good level of physical fitness.
Intermediate Plus
When the mountains begin to take their toll. More challenging routes in terms of gradient or duration, with technical sections or uneven terrain. Even a medium elevation gain can be tough if concentrated in just a few kilometers
Ideal for: Trained hikers, accustomed to walking on mountain paths
Difficult
Level suitable for experienced hikers with excellent stamina and surefootedness. The physical challenge is high, and there may be steep sections or possible exposure, which is always noted in the hike description. Perfect for those who enjoy pushing their limits and conquering significant peaks.
Ideal for: Those who already have experience in an Alpine environment and want to challenge themselves.
Difficult Plus
Only for true Guidders with their Wild Spirit at its peak Long routes, significant elevation gain (over 1,100 m), and technical or exposed terrain. Excellent physical preparation, sure-footedness, and the ability to manage fatigue at high altitude are required.
Ideal for: Highly trained and experienced hikers in the mountains.

Hi Guidders! 🧡 I'm Alessandro, an environmental hiking guide with AIGAE, with 15 years of leading groups behind me. Mountains, hiking, trekking, trail running, cycling: I like anything you do outdoors on your own legs. In fifteen years I've learned one thing, but a good one — a group that feels good walks better than a fast group. I set off from Milan and head mostly for the trails of the Aosta Valley, Piedmont and Lombardy: three regions you can reach in a morning from here, and enough for a lifetime of outings that never repeat. I'm also available for activities on request, so if you have a route in mind we'll build it together. See you in the mountains, Guidders!
We only ask for feedback from people who were really there.
You'll be among the first to share your story.
