Avu - High Way of the Wolves

The itinerary Alta via dei lupi (AVU) unfolds over 10 stages (and 10 variants) that traverse the higher elevations of the Protected Area of the Maritime Alps, from Pian delle Gorre in Chiusa Pesio (in the Marguareis) to the Terme di Valdieri, covering the municipalities of Chiusa Pesio, Roccaforte Mondovì, Ormea, Briga Alta, Limone Piemonte, Vernante, Entracque, and Valdieri.
The high-altitude route, impressive for its incredible landscape and naturalistic elements, connects various important refuges in the Maritime Alps such as Rifugio Mondovì, Don Barbera, Ellena-Soria, Pagarì, Genova, Morelli, and Remondino.
The route, also thanks to its variants, offers the possibility to descend and reach inhabited places of interest such as San Giacomo di Entracque, Palanfrè, Vernante, Limone Piemonte, and Limonetto.
