The Route of Trail N11

The track starts and ends in Nocelleto, at two points about 200 meters apart, at around 750 m. There is a drinking water point near the start.

After 400 meters the trail passes the church of Santa Maria Castellare, with its convent. From there the climb begins, and it is all in the first half: 160 m of elevation gain to the highest point, at about 915 m, at km 1.3. This section is the same as trail 252, which then continues toward Monte Pian Falcone.

The return is a continuous descent of a kilometer and a half back to the village. The first 300 meters of the descent coincide with trail 254.

Trail N11 Technical Data

The status given by the Park is: «Nature trail open. Not yet maintained». It may therefore be less clear and less well marked than other official routes.

A note: for about 300 meters, the N11 follows trail 254, which is listed as closed in the CAI survey data, while the Park includes it without warnings in the E11 route. It is advisable to check its status before setting out; any barriers or signs found on site must be respected.

Points of Interest Along Trail N11

The theme of the trail is the wildlife of the forest. From the thousand shelters the forest offers, the Park writes, the animals silently watch those who pass by: with a little luck, a moving silhouette can be glimpsed or a beat of wings heard. Nocelleto is also the starting point of the E11 hiking route, «Nel territorio del cervo» («In the land of the red deer»).
