The Zocca plain is a splendid grassy basin at around 2,170 meters above sea level, located in one of the side valleys of the Val di Mello. It is surrounded by granite spiers and continuing the uphill path you reach the Allievi Bonacossa refuge, a stopping point for the Roma path and for ascents to the surrounding peaks.

N.B. to access Val di Mello by car you need a ticket which can be purchased at the S. Martino car park, but tickets are limited so in high season you should arrive early (I was lucky to get the last ticket at 8:30).
