With an easy hike you can reach Lago Nero, a hidden pearl in the folds of the north buttress of Rocca la Meja.

You will walk in a secluded environment, with splendid views and once you arrive, the effort will be rewarded by the image of Monviso that is reflected in its waters.

An uncontaminated and fascinating mountain lake. Small in size, it is surrounded by green banks, larch trees and stony ground.

There are several paths that lead to the lake, including a highly recommended ring.
