Soazza - Capanna Buffalora ASAC - Rossa

We start the journey from Soazza, a jewel village in the Mesolcina valley, which has a historic core that has been excellently preserved over time. The well-marked mountain path winds its way above the village, a hundred metres north of the start of the alpine road. You climb steeply, immersed in the tranquility of the forest, until you reach Alp de Bec, at an altitude of 1515 meters. After crossing the bridge over the Ri-de-Buffalora, the path opens onto vast green pastures, following a simple and well-marked route to the Pass de Buffalora, at 2261 meters above sea level. Here, the view opens up on a wild and rugged Calanca. A twenty-minute descent, immersed in a breathtaking panorama, leads to the Buffalora Hut. The refuge is located among beautiful larch forests with rhododendrons and blueberries. To continue the journey towards the village of Rossa, we begin the descent along the Sentee de Buffalora, which offers spectacular natural views. You then continue the descent through the Val de l'Oer on a well-marked and well-maintained mountain path. Finally, you reach the parish church of San Bernardo, located in the heart of the picturesque village of Rossa.
