Crossing 133 Aldo Bonacossa, stage 4: Malga Bordolona - Rabbi, Locality Val
The last day along the Bonacossa crossing is mostly downhill: after 3 days of trekking you return to the valley.
The last stage leaves behind the wild mountain group of the Maddalene returning to the valley and peeking among the typical wooden farmhouses of Val di Rabbi.

Author’s recommendation
There are no support points along the last stage of the Bonacossa crossing, so it is better to stock up on food at Malga Bordolona.
The Bonacossa path ends in the locality Val, in Rabbi. From here you must continue descending along the paved road leading to the village of San Bernardo di Rabbi.
To return by public transport to the starting point, Passo Palade, you need to plan a series of changes:
- bus from San Bernardo di Rabbi to Malè
- local train from Malè to Dermulo
- bus from Dermulo to Fondo
- bus from Fondo to Passo Palade
For this reason, we recommend arranging a taxi service that comfortably takes you back to Passo Palade.

From Malga Bordolona, you climb to the nearby Palù Pass and from here the path continues always downhill.
It reaches Malga Palu, unmanaged, and continues through larch woods until you meet the first farmhouses in the characteristic locality of Stablum. It descends further among the houses and reaches the small group of old mostly abandoned farmhouses of the locality Val.
From here you must keep descending along the paved road that leads to the village of San Bernardo di Rabbi.
