Park near the Cantarettu City campsite (known as "the Ranch" to locals). Limited parking available. You can also start from the San Cipriano shopping area, located along the T30, from where you can rejoin the route.
(S/E) Turn left with your back to the campsite. The path runs along the plain between two stone walls that border sheep pastures on either side. When the road turns right, continue straight ahead along the hedge-lined path. This leads to the rear of the San Cipriano industrial estate (industrial and commercial buildings).
Leave the first path on your right and turn right at the next intersection (1), where you will come to the path coming from the commercial area. Shortly afterwards, the slope begins to steeply and the path winds between hedges and low walls.
(2) At a bend in the track on the right, take the path that goes straight ahead and, a few metres further on, leave this path and take the steep path that climbs up to the right. Although hidden, this is the entrance to the magnificent, wide path that leads to Corbara. Its layout and excellent paving make it very easy to walk on. You will reach the first gardens, the fountain and the Leccia wash house, which mark the entrance to the village.
(3) Begin your tour of the village of Corbara by exploring its streets, alleys and stairways. See § During the hike, find the wash house and head towards Pigna.
(3) At the wash house, take the path that passes in front of it. Further on, a restored fountain offers fresh water to walkers, while the foliage forms a canopy that is undoubtedly pleasant in hot weather.
The path continues at almost the same level between the two villages, with no difficulties other than avoiding the scree from the terraces overlooking the path.
(4) Before coming out onto a track that leads to the village of Pigna, the path crosses a stream just downstream from a spring catchment.
Turn left onto the track and follow it uphill until you reach the car park at the foot of the church.
(5) Turn right to go around the village of Pigna. Return to the car park at the foot of the church.
(5) Continue the walk along the Muratello path. Walk past some beautiful properties, a few tombs and the lovely Lazio chapel. Cross the D151 road, go through the small wrought-iron gate that leads to a wooded meadow to reach the convent of Saint Dominic.
(6) Return to the private entrance to the monastery and take the small path that branches off to the left of the road you arrived on. Pass a final escarpment and come out, heading south, onto the grassy plateau in front of the village.
(7) Continue past the cemetery to reach the Sant'Antonino car park.
(8) Go around the village to the south to avoid the busy ramp that connects the car park to the centre.
Descend on the west side of the village until you reach the access road, near the church car park.
(8) Follow the road to the left downhill and turn right into the first small north-facing lane. You will come to a crossroads with a fountain.
(9) Turn left onto the path that goes around them. Start off gently down the slope, keeping the Saint-Dominique convent in sight, then dive into the chestnut grove. After going down the wooded slope, join the road that leads to Pigna.
(10) Take it to the left for about 100 metres, then turn immediately right to reach the village.
(11) Just before you reach the square in front of the church in Pigna again, turn left onto the path that descends between the first houses in the village. Alternating between gentle and steep sections, this beautiful path leads easily down to the plain, passing old sheepfolds in varying states of repair.
about 500 metres after Pigna, the path comes out onto a track suitable for vehicles. Follow it to the next crossroads and turn right to reach a sheepfold that has been converted into a house.
(12) Go around it on the left and follow the path that continues along the track. It turns left shortly after this building and then runs between two tree-lined embankments. After passing another isolated building, the path comes out onto an unpaved track.
(13) Turn left to follow this track, go around a right-hand bend, and at the second left-hand bend, leave the track and take the small path between the embankments that has been maintained parallel to it.
When this path joins the small concrete road, turn right to reach the Cantarettu City campsite car park. (S/E)
