Monte Torre from Chiusanico

The route starts from the car park opposite the church and its bell tower (Chiesa di Santo Stefano).

(S/E) Take the stairs to the right of the bell tower. You will arrive at a small car park.

(1) Turn right and take the first left, uphill. Immediately turn left with the street and cross the village following the red and white markings (GR®). Ignore the paths on the right. Pass a chapel (on the right) and you will immediately come to an intersection (car park on the right).

(2) Continue straight ahead to leave the village. Climb, heading generally north-east (beautiful views). Further on, the path veers to the right (south-east) and joins another path coming from the left on the ridge.

(3) Follow the ridge as it continues (south-east). This will take you to the summit (cross, extensive views).

(4) Descend via the same path in the opposite direction to the car park (S/E).

Water source in the village, just before point (2).

From the summit (4), there is a breathtaking view of the bay and the surrounding area.
