WHY THIS HIKE

Monte Crocette and Valle Grana

Una piccola grande valle da scoprire...la Valle Grana!

Group chat a couple of days before
Come alone, leave with new friends

The experience

Una valle che merita davvero! Un piccolo scrigno selvaggio incastonato nel cuore delle Alpi Cozie!

Saliremo al Monte Crocette (o Crosetta) partendo dal bellissimo santuario di San Magno, attraversando dolci pendii innevati, fino al grandioso panorama in cima sulle Alpi Cuneesi!

Lì vicino si nasconde una piccola grotta, chiamata "grotta del ghiaccio", se le condizioni di innevamento ce lo consentiranno, la andremo a vedere da vicino, una piccola meraviglia della natura! Torneremo poi dal colle delle crocette al santuario di San Magno, prima però possibile sosta in rifugio a prendere qualcosa di caldo e chiudere in bellezza la giornata!

Hi Guidders! 🧡 I'm Samuele, an environmental hiking guide, a guide for the Rio Martino cave and a cycle touring guide. Among the mountains of the Valle Po, at the foot of Monviso, a passion was born that never went out: walking, exploring, breathing nature in deeply. At some point every step became a life choice, and from a degree in Natural Sciences I ended up here. Today I take out anyone who wants to rediscover this land with curious eyes and a free spirit. Whether it's a panoramic trek, an underground journey or a ride through surprising landscapes, the goal is always the same: real experiences, real feelings, and the sense of being part of something bigger. If you too love the kind of nature that smells of freedom and adventure, you're in the right place. 🌿 See you in the mountains, Guidders!
