Embark on a challenging hike through the Vallone di Soustra to Passo della Losetta, a route that spans 8.1 miles (13.0 km) and climbs a significant 2755 feet (840 metres). While the initial stretch through the Soustra Valley might feel a bit uniform, the scenery transforms dramatically as you ascend. You will be rewarded with incredibly close-up views of Monviso's unmistakable bulk as you approach Losetta Pass, making the 6 hours and 2 minutes duration feel worthwhile.
This is an alpine trail, so you should be prepared for demanding conditions, including steep scree slopes. Good fitness, sure-footedness, and sturdy shoes are essential for navigating the terrain safely. Due to its west-facing exposure, you might encounter permanent snowfields even late in the hiking season, so always check current conditions before you set out.
Located within Parco del Monviso, this route offers more than just a physical challenge; it's an opportunity to immerse yourself in a unique natural environment. Keep an eye out for large groups of ibex, which are often seen in this area, adding to the wildlife experience. You will also pass by historic structures, such as a War-Era Building, providing a glimpse into the region's past.
