Piani di Artavaggio, Mountain plateau in Moggio, Italy
Piani di Artavaggio is a mountain plateau located in Lombardy that sits between 1,600 and 2,000 meters (5,250-6,560 ft) in elevation. The terrain features open meadows, hiking paths, ski runs, and mountain shelters that serve visitors year-round.
The cable car system connecting Moggio to the plateau began operating in 1961 to improve access to the mountain. The system underwent complete modernization and resumed service in 2006.
The mountain huts scattered across the plateau serve traditional Alpine food and function as gathering places for hikers and skiers. These shelters connect visitors to local food traditions and mountain community life.
A cable car from Moggio provides direct access to the plateau, while a marked hiking trail takes about two hours and offers a slower alternative. Bring layered clothing since weather conditions change quickly at this elevation.
The plateau features gentle ski runs equipped with conveyor belt systems designed specifically for beginner skiers. This setup lets newcomers learn and practice without facing steep terrain.
