Val Nera – Bocchetta del Corno di Capra – Val delle Mine

From the road leading up to Forcola pass from Parking P8 in a few minutes we will  reach the hut “Malga del Vago”, from here we take the path to the left  and after  a bridge we  suddenly  start to climb up to reach two majestic century-old larches.

We then proceed smoothly to a fork, the trail leads right to the thunderous cascade of Black Valley , our itinerary instead  continues to the left , hereafter gets  a bit 'more demanding,you need in fact to go up to  an altitude of nearly 3000 m to reach the nozzle and begin the descent.

We are located just above the lake delle Mine, fed by the ice of the omonimous peak , a small glacier that tries hard to survive to global warming ...

The descent should be approached with due attention until the lake while after  proceeds smoothly and leads us down to the Valley delle Mine to the hut where we can have a typical snack, with bread, cheese and salami products on site or a sweeter one with cakes from the "farm"!

We conclude  the hike along the last part of the valley on a beautiful trail that descends on the left, which from the alpine pastures, leads us to the valley bottom, passing first through a cool forest of  pines and larches.

The hike is quite demanding in its upper part, has a difference in level  of about 1000 m.
