Trekking in the province of Pavia

You take your car from Franscia into the Lanterna valley, a side valley of Valmalenco, almost to Campo Moro (1,974 m). You leave it at a small parking lot you come across just up the road, from where the trail to the Campascio and Campagneda alps starts. In sufficient snow conditions you put on your skis right away and follow the road that leads through the woods, first to the Campascio alps (2,078 m) and after a few meters of elevation gain to the Campagneda alps (2,145 m). We are in the area of the Cà Runcasch hut (2,170 m). Crossing the plain in an easterly direction we find ourselves under the steep ramparts of Mount Cornetto (2,850 m). Caution should be exercised in the presence of too much snow. Here the slope becomes decidedly steeper and it is important to proceed drawing the typical diagonals that characterize ski mountaineering ascents. You gain the small mouth immediately on the left of the Cornetto from which the Scalino vedretta opens to view. We then take to the right, continuing cautiously in a southeasterly direction. We face the terminal crevasse. If the snow conditions are good, it is closed and safe and we cross it with relative ease. At this point, having disposed of your skis, you can walk along the ridge to reach the large summit cross of Pizzo Scalino (3,323 m). Particularly along the terminal part of the ridge, ice axe and crampons are recommended, without disdaining the possibility of roped binding, especially in crossing the glacier with the risk of finding open crevasses. The alternative for the ascent may be to climb to the Cornetto not by the steepest route, but by reaching the Campagneda pass (2,626 m) from which you then climb to the right after a short descent along the glacier.
