Park at the entrance to the village of Poggio on the left, in the car park under the olive trees.
(S/E) Walk to the village.
(1) Turn left, then immediately right onto the steps. The steps pass under the road. Turn right a little further up, about ten metres before the top of the steps (orange markings). Continue along the street to Casa Comuna and take the path that passes on its left.
(2) Take the path that starts opposite. It is marked in orange and the beginning is magnificent, surrounded by walls. There are some delightful steps. The slope is gentle here except for a few steep steps. Follow the markings carefully. You will arrive at the Sant Erasmo chapel.
(3) Go around it on the left and continue along the path, which is still marked. You will reach the Laggiarelli sheepfold.
(4) Continue along the orange-marked trail, passing Pierragia sheepfold. Further on, you will come to a trail junction.
(5) Continue to the right, reaching the junction of a new path at the Pierragia stream.
Take the path on the left, uphill (steep), heading east. You will reach a crossroads marked by a sign.
(6) Turn left onto the path marked red, then orange again further on. Begin the final stretch to the summit of Monte Stellu.
(7) Retrace your steps to return to the car park in the village of Poggio (S/E).
