Reachable from 4 sides, Trensasco area, Fort Diamante hut, Sant'Olcese, always passing through the hut. Then, on the other side at the base of the fort, a road that arrives from PonteX, the other from Granarolo or Righi. Routes suitable for non-expert hikers.

Very scenic fort, which unfortunately is closed, but as a waypoint to every hike in this area belongs.

It is worth visiting it at least once. It is the fort that dominates the entire Parco delle Mura from above. In my opinion it is not the most beautiful (for example it is easily surpassed by Forte Sperone) because the internal rooms are inaccessible and the view over the city is covered by the two peaks of Forte Fratello Minore and the former Forte Fratello Maggiore; on the contrary, the view of the surrounding mountains is remarkable. The route to reach the fort starting from via del Peralto (Righi) and continuing on the Sentiero delle Farfalle or on the Sentiero dell'Acquedotto is very beautiful. There are also connections with Begato and Trensasco. The 15 hairpin bends to reach the top of the hill are not all that strenuous.
