Today, these military paths provide privileged access to unique panoramas and restorative silence.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>The Route<\/strong><br \/>\nThe hike starts at the Val Saiento parking lot (1,992 m above sea level), reachable by about a 40-minute drive from Rogorbello, above Vervio. From the parking lot, take the mule track on the right, which climbs over a steep glacial threshold and opens up views of the green plateaus of Alpe Schiazzera.<br \/>\nAfter a few minutes, you\u2019ll reach Rifugio Schiazzera (2,077 m), a former Guardia di Finanza barracks from the 1960s-70s, now renovated into a welcoming stop for hikers.<br \/>\nBehind the refuge, the trail continues to the mountain huts of Alpe Schiazzera (2,109 m). Here, following the path to the left, cross a small stream and ascend a historic military mule track once used to connect the many barracks in the area.<br \/>\nTurning right along the trail, you arrive at Pian Fusino, home to a small alpine pond. The mule track then climbs to the summit basin, which holds the true jewel of this route: Lake Schiazzera (2,392 m), nestled among rocks and surrounded by tiny pools of crystal-clear water.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Useful Info<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Start: Val Saiento Parking (1,992 m)<\/li>\n<li>Average duration: 1h30 (3 hours if starting from Susen, 1,508 m)<\/li>\n<li>Elevation gain: about 400 meters<\/li>\n<li>Difficulty: Hiking (suitable for moderately experienced hikers)<\/li>\n<li>Parking: Paid (\u20ac3.00), metered parking located above Vervio, at Rogorbello<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Ready to set off?
