The old military road offers a great starting point for hikes in this area. It starts at the "Istituto Scientifico Ospedale San Giuseppe" and offers the possibility of a relaxed ascent to the Cima di Morissolo (without major climbs). In addition, the parking lot of the institute can be used for hikers.
