Col Spizzat Loop Hike

Back in winter I snowshoed in this area near Piancavallo but turned back downhill before reaching  Col Spizzat.  Today I continued up to the ridgeline and on down the other side.  A gravel road and then rocky trail soon rejoined the gravel road to Col Alto, making an easy two-hour loop.  You could also substitute the gravel road to Casera Valfredda and MTB the loop except for a few hundred meters of very rough trail below Col Spizzat.  Really wonderful area.
