How to get there : You have to set up in the navigator Comano (Ms) then not far away you take for Monte Giogo and at some point the road gets ruined and disassembled, I suggest to go off with off-road bike, jeep or cmq a normal car not too low because it senses Otherwise it touches below.

Visits : The place is semi-abandoned so you can go there when you want.

Notes : One of the most beautiful and charming places I have ever visited.
