(2) Cross the bridge and climb up the other side.
(3) At the first junction, turn right towards Piedipartinu and continue climbing. Arrive at Piedipartino, near the church on the left.
(4) Follow a small road on the right. After about 150 m, take a path on the right that descends. This leads to a small road, which you should follow to the right.
(5) At a sharp right-hand bend, leave the road, take a path on the left and cross the Fium'Alto again (picnic area before the bridge). Pass a wash house and climb up to Pie-d'Orezza, at the foot of the church.
(6) Turn left and walk along the church on your left. Take the stone steps on the left. First turn left then right to cross the road and take a path. Climb up to the village of Campodonico (chapel on the left).
(7) Follow the road down to the right. Take a cattle grid and descend to Bocca di Ruggia (pigsty).
(8) Let the road turn left and continue straight ahead on a path through a chestnut grove. Come out onto a small road and follow it to the right to the village of Pastoreccia.
(9) Continue straight ahead. The tarmac quickly gives way to a path. Descend and enter Pieddicroce via a staircase.
