A highly scenic route that starts from the distinctive Torri di Fraele and leads toward Monte Scale, a place of great natural and historical interest.
The itinerary follows a mule track and several paths that cross a stand of mountain pine and scree slopes, until reaching the Monte Scale barracks. Here, a tunnel makes it possible to cross the saddle and emerge on the opposite side of the mountain.
With another ten minutes of walking, you reach the Cross, a panoramic viewpoint overlooking the entire valley. In the past, the strategic position of Monte Scale made it possible to control and defend the area in every direction.
The hike is enhanced by the presence of the historian Marco Rodigari, who will captivate the audience with accounts and historical facts carefully documented.
