From Madonna di Fornelli continue towards Pian di Balestra along path no. 019. Then follow the signs for Via degli Dei – Futa and Strada Romana, to reach a small wooden gate which leads to the wood.

Just a few meters and you can see stretches of the Flaminia Militare, the ancient Roman route dating back to 187 BC. Continuing along the route, you come to a gate that is easily identifiable by a drawing and red writing that reads "Close the gate thanks". beyond which a large space opens up: a large field with a stone house on the right (locality "I Capannoni"). Going along the dirt road, after the bend you can see a tree with indications of the route. Continuing we take the right of the crossroads in front of us. This point of the route is not well signposted, but you have to follow the road and after a few meters you will find the CAI n°019 sign on the right. Via degli Dei
