The route of trail 275
In Casali there are the Fonte di Casali spring, the Rifugio Casali, a parking lot and the church of Santi Vincenzo e Anastasio. The first three kilometers climb gently, about 160 m in all, along the valley floor: at km 1 the Cascate delle Callarelle waterfalls are about two hundred meters away, and at km 3.1 the trail passes close to the Fonte di Panìco spring and a bivouac.
After the Sorgenti del Panico springs, at km 3.6, the trail changes character: the last 2.9 km gain more than 600 m, with an average gradient above 20 percent. At km 5.9 it passes the Fonte Angagnola spring, where trail 277 arrives, and climbs to the pass.

Trail 275 map
Two trails reach the Forcella Angagnola: trail 227, from the Valle dell'Ambro side, and trail 273, which climbs to Pizzo Tre Vescovi in less than one kilometer. The Park notes that the Val di Panico, like the Val di Bove, preserves the marks of the Quaternary glaciers, with splendid glacial cirques; from Pizzo Tre Vescovi, on route E6, the view opens over the Valle del Fargno and the Val di Panico. Trail 278 also starts in Casali.
