Long weekends in Italy: Gran Paradiso Valgrisenche A nice long weekend in the Gran Paradiso National Park, July 2003 Lago di S. Grato A worthy lunch spot in the Valgrisenche. Just instruct your porters and personal aides to start up from the SW end (1920m) of the Lago di Beauregard (that's the real name, tho' it sounds like one of Bret Maverick's cousins) and schlep the chilled chicken jellies and paté and basket of choice breads and selection of wines steeply up via the . . .
Grand Alpage La Bemaz (2000m)

The hut at Alpage Revera-basse (2153m), just before things really start to get beautiful.

Here's the Lago di S. Grato (2466m), preparing to be lunched at.
Seeking a nice lunch spot out of the wind but still in full view of the grand peaks, etc.
Nice spot, good choice.
Views around the lake of San Grato
Time to go back now and see if we can still get in on some of the Genzianella's ample dinners.
