Description of the route

The excursion starts from the Amponey locality, just before the village of Champoluc, near a large meadow which in winter is a cross-country skiing track. The trail number of the path is 14B, which gradually climbs into the woods for about 150 meters until it crosses path no. 14, which comes from Champoluc and which with a steeper slope leads, for the last 100 metres of altitude gap, to Mascognaz, an enchanting totally renovated village with typical Walser architecture buildings.
