Itinerary description

A marked trail begins right next to road. There's no designated car park, just traces of cars parking on the side of the road. The trail is well marked and leads through a very diverse terrain. Views are more than just amazing. Try to pick a day with nice visibility and no rain. Several snowfields even in summer and the hardest parts are some steep ascents and descents, may be slippery and muddy.
