Starting from the way to Boscopiano along the main road to the Stelvio Pass, after the Bagni Vecchi thermal Spas, you continue up to a picnic area. At the crossroads, you follow the road to the left, crossing the river Adda. You begin the ascent, finding a small tunnel, other fortifications' remains and then a panoramic terrace with an impressive view over the Valle del Braulio and over the serpentine Stelvio road. You reach now the highest point (1.700 m). Bypassing the detour towards the Lago delle Scale, you go on descending in direction Premadio, through a dense mountain pine's forest, encountering the rests of another old house block.
