Sentiero del Fraiteve (Summer Hike)
A popular summer hiking trail that leads to the summit of Monte Fraiteve (2701m), offering spectacular panoramic views stretching across the Italian and French Alps, including Mont Chaberton and Monte Viso. The trail can be accessed directly from San Sicario Alto or by taking the Seggiovia Fraiteve for a shorter, less strenuous ascent. This medium-difficulty trail involves a mix of dirt paths and rocky sections, with an elevation gain of approximately 500m (if hiking from San Sicario Alto, 200m if using the chairlift). It takes about 2-3 hours for the round trip from the top of the chairlift. Best enjoyed from June to September. No specific cost beyond personal equipment and optionally the chairlift fee.
