WHY THIS TREK

Night at Bivacco Pascal on Mont

Il Bivacco Pascal è annidato sulla la Testa del Liconi, a 2920 metri di quota: ci troviamo in Valle d'Aosta, in uno spettacolare angolo di paradiso alpino dirimpetto al massiccio del Monte Bianco e delle Jorasses. Uno scenario suggestivo che ispira all'alpinismo verso le più alte vette, lungo un ripido sentiero che risale la Val Sapin, piccolo ramo laterale alla Val Ferret. La salita è certamente impegnativa, una sfida a sè stessi, ma soprattutto una dimostrazione che con passione, volontà e semplicemente le nostre gambe si può arrivare in luoghi che sono come dei gioielli, dove la natura domina sorprendendoci con la sua grandezza. Parte più emozionante dell'esperienza sarà sicuramente la possibilità di godere dei momenti magici come alba e tramonto, fermandoci in quota per la notte, all'interno dell'accogliente bivacco. La struttura, di fatto più spaziosa della norma, può ospitare fino a 12 persone, e ci darà l'opportunità di passare dei bellissimi momenti a cucinare e mangiare insieme e godere della pace della montagna.
