Alpe Cava Route

On the second day of the excursion, after spending the night at the Cava hut and admiring the splendid alpine lakes on the alp, you continue towards the Forcarella di Lago, which at 2,260 metres above sea level is the highest point of the excursion. Then descend to the Alpe di Lago to discover a charming lake of the same name, along with a shelter managed by the Patriziato

The trail descends to Alpe Pontima, after crossing the stream along the right bank of the valley. The descent continues to Alpe Compiett where, in addition to a Patrician-owned hut, a number of traditional rustic cabins are surrounded by alpine flora. Continue the descent along the Valle Santa Petronilla, which gives its name to the waterfall that cascades down over Biasca, to arrive at Mount Pieisgèra, a true panoramic balcony overlooking Biasca and the Three Valleys.

The final stretch is a trail of steps leading to Mount Fración from where to reach the junction of Fración di sotto, the starting point of the route.
