Comfortable, mainly flat route on small roads and field tracks. Past the La Stria sculptures in Vicosoprano to Borgonovo. Over the old stone bridge and on the other side of the valley to Palazzo Castelmur in Coltura. On the way to Caccior is the church of San Pietro with a painting by the artist Augusto Giacometti. Behind Caccior, the trail descends to the bridge over the Maira and along the road to the village of Promontogno.
