The Route of Trail 586
There is a drinking water point at the trailhead and, a little farther on, two parking lots. The first two kilometers are shared with trail 587: at km 1.2 the path passes about fifty meters from the Cascata delle Rote waterfall.
After trail 587 branches off, the climb becomes steady. At km 3.2 the trail crosses Setri, at about 800 m, with the church of San Cristoforo; at km 4.4 it reaches the church of San Flaviano and, shortly after, the hamlet of Piaggia. At km 5.6 it passes below Renaro, where trail 585A arrives from Mevale.
The last section climbs again to over 900 m and then continues almost on the level to Riofreddo, with the church of San Lorenzo.
