The Path is well signposted, with the presence of the symbol of the stylised shell in yellow and various tables indicating the way. You can follow ancient paths connecting small towns and ancient roads that led to the sanctuaries, destination of pilgrimages. There are short stretches of roads with little traffic.
Please note that the practicability of the itineraries in a mountain environment is strictly linked to the contingent conditions and is therefore influenced by natural phenomena, environmental changes and weather conditions. For this reason, the information contained in this page may have changed. Before leaving for a tour, make sure the path you will approach is still accessible by contacting the owner of the mountain hut, the alpine guides or the visitor centres of the nature parks, the info offices of the local tourist board.

Destination
Turn-by-turn directions
Leaving the parish church of Cles, we proceed in the direction of Pez. Here, it is possible to visit the church of S. Vigilio, one of the oldest in the valley. Follow the yellow arrow and shell towards Maiano and from there you can enjoy a spectacular view of the S. Giustina lake. Continue and cross the main road and take the Roman road as far as Rallo. Then you pass Sanzenone and along farm roads until you arrive at Tassullo. Tassullo has main churches dedicated to the Assumption and S. Vigilio. After the hamlet of Campo, turn left into "Val dela Paia" and after admiring Castel Valer and its beautiful hexagonal tower you arrive in Nanno.
After the village you can go up to Castel Nanno, then Pavillo and through the "Dos de Lorè" until you reach Tuenno through an ancient connection. Now, head towards S. Emerenziana and descend towards the power station of the same name and then along the Tresenica stream to the bridge. We invite you to carefully climb up the provincial road to Terres; there you climb up to the irrigation channel "Lez" and following it, immersed in the woods, you arrive at the descent that leads to Flavon, the end of the stage.
If this stage seems too demanding, it can be interrupted at Tuenno by returning directly to Cles via the cycle path (after about 15.5 km).

Equipment
Anyone who sets out and wants to get to their destination without problems must wear a good pair of comfortable shoes, preferably with a sculpted sole (like Vibram) and ankle protection (like hiking pedules), but in which the foot is firmly fixed to prevent the formation of blisters or, worse still, risk a sprain. It is also good to have a stick (or better still, telescopic sticks) to help you along the way, especially in some more challenging passages.
