Even today we wake up with the weather and, therefore, as we discussed earlier, we leave for the hike to the lake Mucrone.
We follow the path that starts from behind the sanctuary and Chesal, in principle, through the woods, along river.
Near a chapel, the path back to the open mountain and continues with an acceptable slope, little tiring.
At one point the ascent we encounter a vast expanse of snow, residue huge landslide.
The passed without problems, with a bit of fun after the first initial fears. The snow is firm but not frozen.
After this little incident we take the path that quickly leads us to the little hut Rosazza.
After a brief stop and start again in no more than five minutes to reach the gondola that connects the neighbor Refuge Savona Oropa.
We almost reached the lake. (1.30 h walk)
Within ten minutes, it will not have passed without another big band of snow!
How wonderful!
The lake is almost completely frozen and all around there is still a lot of snow.
Can not make the ride as we thought.
Quick lunch because starts to get cold and then falling to the valley.
We return to the camper just in time before it starts to rain, we rest, then go visit Oropa Sanctuary .
Let's see the New Church and this collection of nativity in the vault, then the Old Church and the cloister.
Beautiful and intimate is the room of candles. We do not enter the museum, since it's almost closing time.
Back at the camper, we have dinner and then head towards home.
We spent a pleasant weekend in the mountains of Biella: We certainly will return!
