This paved path, supported by a magnificent dry stone wall, can be considered exceptional for the quality of its construction. It was the only route available to those travelling by mule from Piana to Porto and Ota in the early19th century. The Piana-Porto road was only opened in 1850 by Napoleon III. From then on, this route was used for communication. Source: Piana Town Hall.
The return journey is via the Calanche di Piana.

While the Calanches de Piana are world-famous, the forest that surrounds them is much less so. This beautiful forest of maritime pines stretches out on either side of the rocky ridge that gives rise to the Calanches. This circuit allows you to explore it before reaching the main site.

A very beautiful hike above the Calanches de Piana, climbing Capu d'Orto via Foce d'Orto. Please note that a large part of the route between the two peaks is off the marked trails and involves some easy climbing. Fortunately, there are numerous cairns to guide you. The climb to the summit from Foce d'Orto requires sure footing and good visibility. At the summit, there is a magnificent view of the entire Gulf of Porto.
