A Botanical Garden at High Altitude
Blooms in the Mughal Valley
A ring-route in the little-visited Mughi valley, among scree, rocks and high-altitude meadows the alpine flora shows itself in all its beauty: pulsatillas, anemones, gentians, perhaps already some rhododendrons, soldanellas and more .
We pass underneath the climbing routes at Zuccone Campelli and climb up to the 2,087 m Corna Grande , which overlooks the Bergamasque Valtorta.
Along the way on what millions of years ago was the bottom of the sea , we can admire the romantic heart-shaped Conchodon fossils (or the devil’s hoof for the darker ones).
So flora, geology, sunshine at high altitude and maybe even some marmot or ch amois whistles (yes, chamois also whistle, albeit in a more ‘breathy’ manner).
