The winter hike between Mollieres and Solomiac is a simple experience but perfect for those who wish to immerse themselves in the magic of the snowy forest. Wrapped in muffled silence, you walk among centuries-old and majestic trees. Every step is a discovery: from the footprints of wild animals on the snow to the ice-covered branches that shine under the sun rays reaching the trail only for a few hours.
The hike allows, starting from the Mollieres junction on State Road 24, to reach the characteristic alpine hamlet called Solomiac, where you can admire from the outside the peculiar facade of Casa Cossoul and, looking up, recognize Cima Monte Chaberton, where its Fortress stands silently.
The route follows a stretch of the historic Via Francigena, a spiritual path that in the summer months comes alive with pilgrims and enthusiasts and connects the Colle del Montgenèvre to the Lower Susa Valley.
From the junction on SS24 road towards Mollieres, you can park and reach the small village on foot. Passing a parking lot in the center of Mollieres, and leaving the Church of Sant'Antonio Abate on the right, continue along the road passing near the old oven of the hamlet. Straight ahead for 300 meters, the paved road ends to make way for the path/trail from which the winter hike starts.
