WHY THIS HIKE
Cima d'Ometto between Valsesia
La cima d'Ometto (1.911 m s.l.m.) è una montagna delle Alpi Biellesi. È situata tra la Valsesia (VC) e la Valle Sessera (BI);si trova alla convergenza di tre creste, due delle quali collocate sul crinale spartiacque Sessera/Sesia.

The experience
Di esse quella orientale scende verso un colletto quotato 1702, per poi risalire alla Colma dei Lavaggi e al Monte Camparient (1.739 m s.l.m.), mentre quella occidentale collega la cima d'Ometto al Testone delle Tre Alpi tramite la Bocchetta delle Varalle.
La terza cresta è un breve contrafforte che si diparte dallo spartiacque principale in direzione nord e si conclude con il Monte Ovago (1.764 m s.l.m.), che domina il tratto di Valsesia tra Piode e Pila.
