Sendero

S39

A short, gentle walk from Cogne to Valnontey, along the great Sant'Orso meadow and the stream: the widest irrigated meadow in the Italian Alps, kept intact for centuries by the community's will. At Valnontey, base for the routes towards Gran Paradiso, you can visit the Paradisia alpine botanical garden, which since 1955 has grown over a thousand high-altitude species. A route for everyone, with the Tribolazione wall closing the valley.

Ciencias de la Tierra

Geología y paisaje

The Gran Paradiso massif is a crystalline core of the Penninic nappe: augen orthogneisses wrapped in calcschists and greenstones, shaped by the glaciers that feed the valley's lakes and waterfalls.

Historia y cultura

This is the Gran Paradiso National Park, Italy's oldest (1922), born from the royal hunting reserve of Vittorio Emanuele II: here the ibex was saved from extinction and the trails follow the royal mule tracks. Ibex, chamois, marmots and the bearded vulture are frequent sights.
