This one was a personal project I had in mind for the last couple of years.

In 2023 I tried twice to do it, and never succeeded. The first time I had to stop and spend the night at the bivacco Ivrea because of a bad thunderstorm, and the second time I arrived at the lago D'Eugio completely exhausted and could not continue.

I am so happy I managed to complete it this time, I faced sleep deprivation with many hallucinations and extreme fatigue. The last 40 km were really hard, but I pushed through!

Two assistance points, where I could refill and stock up food: first one at the rifugio Mila in Ceresole (51km) and second one in Talosio (105km). I also had a coke and a water at the rifugio Pontese in between these two points. You also find a lot of water on the route, just always make sure where it comes from.

I am the first person doing this route no stop and I hope more people will try it.
