It starts from Canza, a hamlet above Formazza. Take the forest road to refuge Margaroli/Alpe Vannino, climb with a regular slope up to the chairlift, where the road enters the valley.

The Vannino area is truly a beautiful sight. Starting from Canza, you climb to the top station of the chairlift, where the slopes become more challenging for a kilometer.

Route suitable for everyone starting from the Sagersboden chairlift. Snowy trail but passable thanks to the snowcat. Crampons recommended for the fast sections. Stop for lunch and a chat at Margaroli. The only flaw is the chairlift that has fixed times instead of operating all day
