Val Federia - nozzle Leverone – Cassana Shelter

From Calcheira Bridge, near  the namesake restaurant   you proceed through  the Val Federia.

Along the valley you can see the typical small houses built of wood and stone, the "Tee" where farmers once  moved when they brought their cattle to the high pastures for the summer months.Following the instructions to the Cassana Pass  you will cross a path of dirt road which you will  leave after a hairpin , by turning left onto a lane.

This path leads us to Val Leveron, very characteristic geologically wise as formed by two sides of rocks of different origin, Also the flora is affected by these different substrates and therefore has a remarkable variety.

Once at the saddle,  you will go back in north  direction  along the border with Switzerland following the top of the rounded shapes of the mountain.

When you arrive at the Pass of Cassana around 2700 m in a few minutes you can go to the namesake refuge  from where you walk on easy dirt road that takes you back to the staring point.

Easy hike and not particularly challenging.
