There are numerous opportunities for walking and trekking on the mountains of Bardonecchia with the use of the chairlift system.

The wide range of routes ensures that there is something for everyone – from those wanting a pleasant stroll to the most expert mountain walkers.
Sunlit footpaths and paths through the woods lead to some of the most famous peaks of Bardonecchia and the Upper Val di Susa: the Guglia Rossa, the Val Fredda, the Tre Croci, the Sommeiller, Thabor and the peaks of Pierre Menue with plenty of opportunity to stop along the way in Alpine refuges and the many mountain pastures.

HORSE RIDING
For horse-riders there are many paths through the woods and across the meadows, of differing lengths and difficulties, but always with wonderful views.

The Parete dei Militi is a very well-known climbing wall situated in the nearby Valle Stretta and it was used for the first world climbing championships in the 1980s. The Wall has a number of random rocks to climb on.
