    The first part of the hike is on an asphalted road, it then continues on a dirt track through a fir wood.This trail was once used by the shepherds during the transhumance to carry the animals up to the alpine meadows of the Agaro mountain.The route we are following doesn’t climb up to the serpentines but bends towards località Fradea, where it is possible to overlook the “masi”, the “mountain houses” of Castello Tesino inhabitants. The circuit ends once the starting point is reached.
