Description of the route

Just after Moline, in the municipality of Cogne, take route 5 on the left of the road that goes up the slope to Colonna.

You can also continue inside the valley of Liconi (ancient cultivation site outside the iron mine) to reach the ridge leading to Mount Creya. Interesting panorama.

The section between Colonna and Mount Creya is recommended for expert hikers.
