The funicular
Looking to Piora from the top of the funicular station
Lago Ritom is located in a valley in the Alps and is a starting point for a number of hiking trails. We were quite ambitious and opted for an 8 hour hike that included climbing to over 2500 meters. It was completely exhilarating and exhausting.
This part of the Alps is well-known for small lakes in the valleys between the mountains. The lakes were a great treat to see as we were climbing up the mountains. We also hiked through some gorgeous valleys, saw lots of small springs and streams, and even saw some groundhogs (and cows, of course).
Here are some photos we took along the way.
