Tips

Near the large rocky spur of Figliolo it is necessary to climb to reach the summit, where the statue of the Madonna marks the highest point. From here you can enjoy a spectacular 360 degree view.

WARNINGS for those who want to reach the summit of Figliolo (see photo!)
For the more adventurous you can climb to the top of Figliolo, to do so go around the wall towards SE climbing on a gravelly trail up to a crack between the rocks. You will find a huge boulder stuck between the walls, you have to go beyond it and you have to climb in this crack between the rocks (you need a bit of agility and caution especially when going down). You climb up reaching the summit ridge, paying attention to a slightly exposed section and avoiding the side where more friable rock is visible (yellow color). From the Madonna on the summit you can read Monte Figliolo 1337 m. The view is phenomenal and worth the little "climb" but, it is NOT for everyone, you need good mountaineering experience and you must not suffer from vertigo.

Cima Il Figliolo is a rocky outcrop in the municipality of Petina. At more than 1300 meters above sea level, it offers a splendid view of Monte Panormo, the highest peak of the Alburni Mountains, and of the Tanagro valley.
