Devero Alp
At Alpe Devero it is possible to move around only on foot or by bicycle, nature is uncontaminated and looks like a paradise for those who love pure mountains and love to walk paths surrounded by greenery and in total tranquility.
As soon as you reach Piana del Devero you find yourself in front of the few houses that make up the village with its typical Walser-style houses, in stone and wood, the small church and some restaurants and refuges.
Many itineraries for more or less demanding excursions start from Alpe Devero. I advise you to reach Crampiolo, a fairy-tale village, surrounded by greenery between streams and lakes and from here continue to get to the beautiful and suggestive Devero Lake
