Path S492 leaves the road at Bolladore and for a short distance runs along the meadows up to Nalunt, then enters the forest of firs and larches following the rocky ridge that dominates Boscaccia. Cross more meadows and climb to the charming and picturesque village of Taron. This is a very sunny location with a mild climate even in winter, where you can enjoy views of the valley from Migiondo up to Valchiosa. From Taron the mule track leads to the edge of the meadows and a birch forest heading towards Piata Picena. There is a narrow hairpin turn to the right, then the trail climbs steeply with Piata Grenda on your left and enters a thick forest of fir trees. The trail passes above the Malga Mezzano hut, first reaching Medola then Madrisc. From here you have a full view of the Alta Valtellina from Tirano to Bormio.
