From the town, climb towards the pass following the asphalt road. Your eyes, immediately attracted by the elegant silhouette of Revellone, will follow the jagged south-eastern ridge and sight, immediately after, the twin Mt. Murano, beyond Gola della Rossa, slender and rocky too, and reach the green hills and variegated cultivated areas of Esinante. In the middle of Revellone, some well-arranged rocky structures invite you to stop for a visit we recommend to carry out during the return journey. Immediately after the cemetery, cut for the rounded Cerreto up to Falaschieri. Then, on the right, take the large trail developing across the woodland, not considering the detours on the left. Out of the woodland, along a steep and short uphill trail, you will reach after some bends the cross placed on the small summit. The panorama you can enjoy from here is considerable for its beauty, vastness, and variety. Going downhill, follow the asphalt road until you reach the picnic area and then, going straight ahead along a flat trail, the second picnic area. We are at the gates of a harsh environment, to observe looking upwards. The entrance is characterized by a narrow track cutting the first ridge and then climbing, very steep and bumpy. Be very careful to the trail and to the falling stones.
