Description of the walk

The walk starts from the car park at the tourist office on Route de la Restonica.

(S/E) Cross the footbridge and take the path on the right.

Pay attention, as several paths intersect. Once you have crossed this passage, the route becomes easy to follow.

(1) At the first intersection, continue straight ahead, passing a small cottage. At the next intersection, turn left and you will come to another intersection.

(2) Turn right. The path, which is completely shaded, alternates between two ascents and two descents, without any real difficulty. Throughout the route, enjoy the panoramic views and typical landscapes of the gorges. When you arrive at the campsite, do not use the sanitary facilities or take water without asking. Cross the campsite.

(3) At this point, after about an hour and a half of walking, you have two options. For a shorter route: turn right, cross the bridge over the Restonica and return via the D623.

Otherwise, continue into the heart of the Restonica Gorges for even more spectacular scenery and relaxation. If you continue to the "ford", the path is very easy to follow. You can then walk along the stream to reach some beautiful natural pools.

(4) Enjoy this spot and then turn back to the fork before the campsite.

(3) Turn left and return along the road. There is little traffic. There are other beautiful views of the mountains. Walk on the right-hand side. It takes about 40 minutes to return to the car park (S/E).
