Access

Val Di Lanzo: North access - Val di Ala: Drive to Balme. Follow the GTA, passing by the small Laghi Verdi lakes, then arrive at the bivouac at the foot of Passo Paschiet 2435m. South access - Val di Viu: Drive to Lemie, then drive as high as possible towards the Ovarda alpine pasture. Climb to Passo Paschiet to reach the bivouac.

Good to know

- Good insulation - Blankets, pillows - 1 Table - 2 Benches - 1 Shovel Water is available in the lake and in some springs a little further up. You can start from Usseglio, a little higher in the valley, via the GTA which leads to Colleto di Costa Fiorita 2468m. The ascent via the GTA to this pass is very long (1200m+ elevation gain), on a grassy trail sometimes poorly marked (you are on the GTA!), some sections are steep and can be slippery in wet conditions ... Choose wisely ...
