Route description: a spectacular ring route that takes us along the shores of three stunning alpine lakes. From the parking lot, the trail steeply ascends towards Lake Vacarsa. Upon reaching Bochet de l'Acqua Fredda, a constant descent leads us to the lakes of Garzonè and San Giuliano, where the characteristic refuge is located. The return trail runs along the southern slope of Val Genova, offering an unusual view of the Nardis waterfalls.
