We start from Pian delle Betulle for a panoramic trekking of 3 hours and 30 to discover the beautiful Val Biandino.
We reach the Pian delle Betulle ( 1484 m ) by cable car from Margno ( info on site www.pianidibobbio.com ) or by car from Alpe di Paglio and then to Pian delle Betulle on foot in about 15 minutes.
From here we follow the signs to the Alpe Ortighera ( 1505 m ) and then the Lares Brusaa ( 1708 m), which can be reached in about an hour , walking along the easy agro-forestry-pastoral road. In a sunny day the view of the Grigna , the Valsassina and Lake Como and Lake Lugano is beautiful.
We follow the trail to the Rifugio S. Rita and then to the Cima di Olino : the view also opens the area of the Piani di Bobbio and Artavaggio. We start to climb the grassy slope of Pizzo Cornagiera , facing the Pizzo dei Tre Signori.
At the location Laghitt ( 1939 m ), there are two mountain lakes , a chapel and some picnic tables. The landscape ranges now also on Valvarrone.
We still follow the signs to the Rifugio S. Rita , which from here is still a 1-hour journey. It now begins to descend through fields and bushes overlooking the Valvarrone left and Val Biandino right.
Walking along the ridge , we pass under a high voltage pylon and , after a flat , and we continue to go down passing under the cables of another pylon. From here we take a trail that goes down in 30 minutes direct to the Val Biandino and Rifugio Tavecchia ( mountains hut trail markers indicate Rifugio Bocca di Biandino ).
There are other paths that descend to Val Biandino in the tract from Lares Brusaa – Laghitt , before arriving precisely at the two lakes. The first falls from the Bocchetta of Agoredo and passes for the Alpe Abi , reaching Val Biandino in 1 hour 40 minutes ; the second cross just before the Laghitt ( attention, here there is no trail marker ) and it falls more quickly in about 1 hour ( in dialect is called Path of Cows baecause it is used with the herds ).
