Mortigola - San Giacomo ring - Description

A pleasant circular route with departure and arrival in the San Giacomo, Brentonico.
An easy itinerary to discover the meadows and beech woods typical of this area in the green heart of the Local Natural Park of Monte Baldo, also known as the "Garden of Italy" for its wealth of rare flowers and preglacial plants. Along the way stop from time to time to admire the splendid view of the valley below.

Directions

  • Start

    San Giacomo

    From S. Giacomo, near the characteristic chapel, proceed on the first asphalted and then unpaved road following the signs for the SAT Path O622 and proceed until you meet a crossroads with signs for Malga Mortigola. Here take the downhill path to the right and make a short stop to greet the grazing animals of the malga. Immediately after, retrace your steps towards the crossroads encountered previously and then, turning right, continue along the road that goes into the woods. At the crossroads, near a house, take the slightly uphill road to the left. The first section takes place in the woods and then comes out in a large meadow. Crossing it, in the next uphill stretch of wood, you will again meet the signs of the SAT O622 path. From here, take the road to the left again and go down through the meadow keeping the marked path until you meet the dirt road again. Turn right again and the path will take you back to the starting point.
