The route of Trail 277

The trail starts from the Forcella del Fargno, at 1,811 m, next to the mountain hut. The first 500 meters descend about seventy meters; then the trail regains height very slowly, with a few ups and downs, and reaches the spring at about 1,780 m.

Above the trail, about 230 meters away, is the Forcella Angagnola (1,924 m). At the end it meets trail 275.

Trail 277 technical details

In all there are about 40 m of ascent and 70 of descent; on the way back the figures are reversed.

The dirt roads that climb to the Fargno from Pintura di Bolognola and from Casali di Ussita have been closed several times by the municipalities in recent years: it is wise to check before driving up.

Trail 277 map

The Forcella del Fargno is a trail junction: trail 274 to Pizzo Tre Vescovi and trail 276 to Monte Rotondo also start here, while trail 278 arrives from Casali di Ussita and trail 311 from Bolognola.

Trail 275, met at the Fonte Angagnola, has its other end in Casali itself: combined with trail 277, it gives those who came up on trail 278 a different way down.
