Starting from the P2 Vie'ira parking lot to immediately face the ladder that allows passage over the artificial tunnel of the Gallo road. From here, take trail N176 which, in the first part, is grassy and then winds into a beautiful forest of larches and mountain pines. Continuing the path, the natural scenery becomes increasingly wild. At the end of this easy route, you reach the sulfurous water spring. Continuing into the Canton Valley, the whistle of marmots signals arrival at Baite'l dal Canto'n. From here, the trail becomes more challenging until reaching 2,720 meters above sea level at Boche'ta dal Canto'n, from where it is not uncommon to observe bearded vultures in flight and ibex grazing. Then descend along a rather steep stretch on trail N175, first encountering Baite'l da la Sascia, arriving at Mescent and then tackling the final part of the trail in the larch forest to Camposctin and then to the P3 Calcheira parking lot.
