Gentle Forest Trail

Starting from the Aprica Sports Hall continue uphill along via Magnolta until you cross the bridge over the Aprica stream and then descend briefly on via Clef. At the first fork turn left and go up for a short stretch on a road that changes from asphalted to dirt after a right curve. There you will immediately find the first descriptive panel created by Aprica primary school children.

Along this simple and panoramic route, suitable for children, several panels are placed where the children summarized all the useful information for organizing a safe mountain walk. The first section gradually climbs in altitude and the view over Valtellina and the Rhaetian Alps distracts us from the effort. Once you reach the Corna Bassa locality, where some tables are available for breaks, the road starts climbing with some hairpin bends that lead to the huts of Corna Alta.

At the fork at the third hairpin bend, we turn left towards east and continue until joining the road ascending to Magnolta (trail 326). From this point, we descend to the left, following the downhill road that, passing the Magnolta “pistone”, leads back to Aprica. Descending after crossing the Aprica stream, the road changes from dirt to asphalt and returns to the starting point. (The last stretch has a fork on the right leading to the fitness trail)
