2nd stage is entirely in Italy allowing you to walk alongside the many military buildings that protect the nearby border. The long descent before the shelter lets you enjoy the Italian pastures that appear much greener than the French. This is due to the more abundant moisture from this side of the border.

Departure from Sestriere (Torino)
A wonderful mountain bike ride from Sestrières to the Valle d’Argent. A stunning spot at the bottom of a beautiful, unspoilt valley. Waterfalls, rivers… well worth a visit. The climb back up to Sestrières is a bit technical.
