Relatively steep, high single digit

Challenging climb, but great satisfaction

Interesting wetland on the Aveto/Trebbia hill. The lake, which has almost disappeared among the grass, was restored two years ago thanks to the efforts of an inhabitant of Vallescura. Powered by a small pipe that collects springs from the meadows upstream. http://www.vallescura.net/lagoind.htm

Connection between Val d'Aveto and Val Trebbia. Wonderful places to pedal in peace.

From the top a beautiful view over the Trebbia valley, Casanova and Fontanigorda. At the top the famous sword in the stone.

Our route starts from the Fregarolo Pass and can be reached by car along the SP48 that connects Cabanne with Fontanigorda. The path begins on the pass, inside the sharp bend, marked by a yellow dot that distinguishes the entire path along the ridge. After a few steps you will come across a small chapel and then cross a small pine forest and climb over a slightly marked peak. The path continues in the shade of the beech forest surrounded by extraordinary autumn colors. The carpet of leaves softens our steps as the rustle of the red and yellow leaves falling from the trees accompanies us. In an undemanding ups and downs you can easily reach Passo del Fante where on the left you meet the path that comes from Fontanigorda.

This curious mountain is characteristic for its isolated position. Steep to the north, with a rocky overhang to the south, it offers a pretty good aerial view from its summit. Its rock is made up of diabasic amygdala and in the most sloping part it also has a second, even more daring access route. Due to its geographical feature it was used as a lookout post by customs officers, at the time of the Fieschi, to monitor the famous Gifarco mule track, an important commercial communication route. On the northern part of the summit, in fact, excavations with the remains of ancient walls that surrounded the lookout post can be seen. With its 360-degree panorama, you immediately notice the wonderful glimpse of the Trebbia Valley where the villages of Casanova and Fontanigorda lie. Further away on the other side you can see the villages of Cassingheno, Fontanarossa, Bertazzi and Bertone dominated by Mount Antola, Costalta, Alféo and Carmo.

The Val del del Fregarolo is probably the ideal arrival point for those who want to try a medium climb (from the Rezzoaglio side) or rather tough starting from Val Trebbia (Casoni di Fontanigorda). In some points it even exceeds 10% but generally remains always between 5 and 8%. At the top of the pass there is a restaurant / restaurant and it is also an excellent starting point for MTB tours or excursions. The altitude is around 1200 m.
