Warnings

  • High-altitude route: start early, plan time and water, and turn back before early afternoon.
  • In fog the path across pastures and boulder fields can be hard to follow: rely on waymarks and a map.
  • Always check the forecast before setting out: mountain weather changes fast and summer afternoon storms are common.

Fitness level

An 11.1 km full-day route from Veulla at 1286 m to Gran Lago at 2539 m, passing the beautiful Lago Serva on the way. Starting in partially wooded terrain, the path climbs through summer pastures and rocky high-altitude zones, with larches giving way to rhododendron heath and scree. The Gran Lago rewards the 1272 m of total elevation gain with striking blue waters and a sweeping panorama over the central Aosta Valley. Suitable for experienced, fit hikers only.
