Description

A beautiful hidden place high up in the mountains. So far more easy than hard boulders. Best season when the valley is too hot. Don't miss October when the larch trees turn yellow. 5' drive and 10' walk higher up brings you to the Capanna Cava. A nice place to stay overnight or to eat and drink something. Another 10' walk brings you to some beautiful small mountain lakes. It's a long drive on narrow mountain street - don't go if you don't like this. The area is well suited for kids with many low balls which are not on the topo.

History

The spot was developeed by Andres & Julia Lietha Summer 2019.

Val Pontirone

The area is access sensitive!

Drive from Malvaglia in the Val Pontirone Valley. Pass the village Pontirone (with a nice Grotto) and continue the narrow street to Fontana / Biborgh. Drive down to the bottom of the valley again and continue the partly unpaved street up to the parking (1h drive from Malvaglia).
Follow the jeep-road down and up for around 800 m until a meadow opens on the right. Hike up for another 5' to see the Cubo (15' from the parking).
The alp is an open cattle ranch in summer - don't block the jeep road and be nice to the cows. Don't approach cows with a calf.
