An intense but varied and challenging stage. We regain altitude and reach the summit of Mount Creino, with its generous views and intact remains of trenches and bunkers.

From the historic center of Mori one crosses the part of Mori Vecchio, characterized by old houses with faded colors and medieval walls, arriving at the entrance to the Sentiero delle Laste, particularly smooth and oblique rocky conformations. Going up towards Manzano one flanks the large entrenched complex of Nagia Grom, which deserves a thorough visit if one has time, perhaps accompanied by historical guides who can better recount the strongly experienced positional warfare there. Going up the Val di Gresta between the villages of Valle San Felice and Pannone, one encounters terraces and cultivated fields, flanked by dense mid-mountain forests, in a rather steep section of trail that leads to Mount Brugnolo and Mount Creino at 1280 meters above sea level, the highest point of this stage, before descending into the pleasant and rustic village of Ronzo Chienis.

Further information and useful links

In the mountains, it is essential to know where you are at all times: it is good to have a digital and/or paper topographic map with you, as well as a wrist altimeter and a compass (the digital one found on smartphones is also fine). These are useful tools for orientation, but you need to know how to use them correctly, so you need to practice a bit before you go! Poles are also always useful.

Suggestions

Don't be fooled by the short length of the stage: the climbs are important and, especially in the first one, the heat can make itself felt: good to start early!

In some short stretches (between the hamlets of Manzano and Pannone, and along the crest of Mount Creino) signage is not present and the trail may be partially hidden by vegetation: you need to consult the gpx track to get your bearings.
