Bridge and beach on Sentiero 8 Pastels Painting

Bridge and beach on Sentiero 8 Pastels PaintingThis is a spot I love coming to with my dog. It is a super easy walk, as it is all flat, but it can be a bit icy in winter. It is great in summer as it is in the shadow, so you go there when you try to escape from the sun. At the end of the "sentiero" (or path), you find this little beach with some rocks and an old bridge. You see in the summer the rafting dinghies passing through the rapid waters of the Dora Baltea, but if not, it is a pretty quiet

It depicts very little people cross country skiing in this beautiful valley that runs parallel to the Monte Bianco Massif
