Description of the itinerary: the itinerary starts from Lillaz (along the Alta via n2) to reach the small village of Les Goilles, on the orographic left of the Urtier valley. From there you cross an extensive forest of fir and larch trees that leads you to the pastures of Pianes, situated halfway the entire hike. The second part of the itinerary follows the orographic right side of the valley, leading you back to the starting point: the parking in Lillaz.
Entering the Urtier valley in winter, means opening the body, hearth and mind to wonderful white word, having a snowy soft cover.It is quite difficult to describe the enchanting atmosphere while admiring the larch and spruce woods, but it’s much easier to experience it while snowshoeing, and discover, at the end of the hike. the ancient origins of the village of Cogne.
A real paradise of History and Wilderness in front of the Grivola!!!
