• frankie9594 - 2017-10-14 Monaco- Trieste Leaving Larche, the trail stays to the left of the river. Make sure to make the correct turn for Col de Sautron. Everything said about "Bivouac Danilo Sartore" is true if you can manage to stay there the nigh, it is worth it. Possible to Bivouac along the trail by the lake close to Saretto. Camping is also available north of Chiappera.
