Between the Sarca valley and the slopes of Monte Stivo, this stage crosses some of the lesser-known but no less fascinating areas of Garda Trentino
Ceniga and Bolognano are only a few kilometers apart as the crow flies: the Medium Loop trail leads you to discover, with a detour, the peculiarities of this part of the territory, especially exploring the slopes of Monte Stivo.
Along the Sarca valley, following the Coste di Varino trail, just before climbing toward Drena and the Castle dominating the expanse of limestone boulders of the Marocche, the route passes near the gorge of Rio Sallagoni, where one of the most characteristic via ferratas of Garda Trentino rises.
Shortly before reaching Braila, the itinerary touches the Open Air Gallery, an artistic project that transforms the forest into an open-air art gallery. The area indeed houses many installations made with various recycled materials, creating a fantastic colorful world.
The route is usually passable all year round: only in the winter months is it sometimes possible to find snow along the path. For this reason, it is always advisable to check the trail conditions if you want to attempt it between November and March. In this period it is also recommended to verify the openings of refuges and accommodation facilities.
