Route description
Follow a path uphill above a little valley. Head to the right into the forest, then cross a small dig. On the elevation between the dig and the Fosso dell'Acero river, follow a gravel path straight ahead.
This wide path will get you to a clearing next to a waterfall. Alongside the stream, beside rock faces you will cross a little brooklet. Then, over many grassy crests you will reach a second waterfall. Pass a gravel path coming from the right and head into the direction of the Sorgente Mercurio wellspring.
Hike above the Valle delle Cento valley straight towards the Gorzano mountain saddle. On the front side of the valley you will get to the Cento Fonti before heading further west to your left and reaching the Laghetta pinnacle behind a crest.
