This trip starts from the very small alpine village of Rucas (Bagnolo Piemonte). Going upward across the ski slopes, it is possible to pass through field full of alpine rhododendron (in June), and reaching Punta Ostanetta, where the view wides to the entire piedmontese Pianura Padana. From the near Punta Razil, the famous Monviso dominates the scende towards south.
