Black Lake and Val Trela

The easy hike starts  from Foscagno pass just under 2300m of altitude.

The trail climbs at first gradually on the slopes of Mount La Rocca then gets a bit 'more steepy   after  the 2600 meters altitude.

Hence, your eyes gaze up to the snowy peaks of the Ortler Cevedale. After a few minutes descent you get near  the Black Lake,The descent  continues down a bit 'steeper , until  the green and plain pastures of Malga Trela​​, where a meal is a must and always highly appreciated!

The walk then continues in the direction of the Trela pass towards the village of  ​​Trepalle for the return. The path is easy and undemanding and shows very nice surroundings.

On top of the pass you can see the edelweiss. Descending the possibility of concluding the tour are two:

1. continuing to  the bottom of the valley , to the “Pila”  village , and thence eventually walking along the valley  Tort untile the Alpisella refuge, along the Lake of Livigno (required  2more  hours of walking);

2. at a small bridge  by going  left and then  moving  into the  "Arneira" area  where it is possible to go along the road that leads back to Livigno.

The walk is not difficult, it is easy and very varied, the unevenness limited, both rises, before the lake and after the hut are  about 300-350m.
