Cogne - Sylvenoire - cascata di Lillaz

Cogne's best-loved walk: from the main village you follow the stream to the hamlet of Lillaz and its famous waterfalls, where the Urtier plunges in three spectacular leaps among glacier-smoothed rocks. An easy, almost level route, ideal for families, through meadows, bridges and woods; equipped walkways let you approach the roar of the water. In winter the frozen falls are a renowned ice-climbing arena.

Along the way — you move in the heart of the Gran Paradiso National Park, realm of ibex and chamois. The route crosses alpine pastures and larch woods, with flowering meadows in summer and broad views of the peaks opposite. It is a route suitable for everyone, on easy ground.
