The last stage of the Simplon Fletschhorn Trekking. From Andolla to Antrona.

9th stage: between ibex, deer, and roe deer

At the Andolla shelter, ibex can often be observed in the evening hours. To descend to Cheggio, you can either use the normal road or one that leads to Alpe Camasco (restored in 2013), where you enter the area of deer and roe deer, the park of the Antrona valley. In Campalamano, there is a Tibetan bridge and, if you continue the hike, you will come across the chapel of Piana Ronchelli. Then continue along the characteristic Cavallisee. Cheggio is a small settlement built around a small oratory dedicated to St. Bernard. Later, you descend over the pastures of Campo to Antrona.
