Explanation
From the hut, perched on a beautiful panoramic hill, hike for another half an hour uphill with a further altitude difference of 100 metres to reach Lake Morghirolo. Enclosed in a basin at the top of the magnificent Piumogna Valley, its clear blue waters are tempting for a swim but be sure to test the temperature first!

Tips and suggestions
Montagnepulite: This project was born to promote an effective management and sustainable use of mountain huts in Ticino, and in particular the litter management. The responsible management of litter in the mountains is a matter of common sense. We can all contribute: www.montagnepulite.ch
Variant A: The lakeshore excursion is characterised by a number of very rocky stretches (time required: 45min; length: 1 km).
Variant B: Variant B heads towards Piz Campolungo and then proceeds towards Cima di Lei alpine pasture, with its magnificent views of the Campo Tencia group (time required: 1h 45min; length: 1.8 km).
