A forest trail that starts near the Cassana cable car, well sheltered for the snowiest days, or to admire the snowfall in the trees. The managed route, marked with blue and orange markings, is the perfect choice if you want to walk through the forest and arrive at the Costaccia refuge. Once at the Costaccia hut, the options for the descent are endless, with various off-piste routes leading down from the forest. For the descent, it is recommended to use the ski slopes adjacent to the route; the slopes close at 5 p.m. after which time it will no longer be possible to ski down them. For those who wish to descend off-piste, we remind you of the obligation to use the self-rescue kit consisting of an avalanche transceiver, shovel and probe, and to find out about the quality of the snow and the risks associated with it by reading the avalanche bulletin or contacting the Alpine Guides.
