Hiking

Easier path to move between the southern peak of Mount Piglione and the town of Groppa. The descent on this path is particularly suggestive at sunset, due to the nuances between light and shadow that are created on the ridge line, thanks to its transversal orientation with respect to the arch of the sun. The path has a shorter, steeper and more exposed variant that leaves the ridge just below the summit and runs diagonally along the SE side, returning to the usual end.
