The starting point of the trail leading to the Benigni refuge. The parking lot is located along the road leading to the Piani dell'Avaro; rather than a parking lot, it's a roadside parking lot. There's a toll road, and the signpost is located shortly after the town of Cusio. The daily cost is €3.

Paid parking is available along the roadside and at Piani dell'Avaro.

Tickets can also be purchased online: pianidellavaro.it/pass/auto

The location indicated in my highlight is near trail 108, which leads to the Benigni Refuge.

Here is departure for Benigni Refuge. There is a small car park a few moments before this photo with a CAI sign. For the Monte Avaro car park, continue along the road. I would not identify the photo.
