Very lovely spot with an epic mountain view. Although you are restricted to one dedicated spot of the area about 4 square meters. No chance to choose the place since there is a high fence.

Photography Tips

Bring some sturdy and possibly high tripods to go over the fence. You can bring something not portable in your car since the parking lot is about only 100m far. I went with Peak Design -it was possible but not great.
ND filters are handy as well as remotes. For me, the best focal length was between 50-70mm. If you go wide the church gets very small in the final image.
Due to the fence, you can not go lower to the ground (unless you do not want to go out on the farmer's crops - which you should not). The solution could be some gymnastics with a tripod and upside-down camera- I did not do that...

Both sunrise and sunset can be great if you are lucky. The mountains are often in clouds which may lead to clouds covering the whole mountain view. You need to take your chance.

Travel Information

The way is pretty straightforward - you go through Santa Magdalena village and then you park your car in the nearby parking lot. It is small but you do not need to be worried. In the early morning and late afternoon, there are just a few cars. It is paid but it is quite cheap. (1,50€ maybe)
