The trail starts from the Gorda hut which stands on a wide, sunny pasture. The hut is accessible by car via the forest road.

Hike the dirt road leading to the mountain pasture for about a hundred metres, and then follow the enjoyable ascent to reach the top of the mountain in just under an hour.

From here, the trail gets flatter with the last 300 metres situated on the wide terrace on the crest heading to the ‘Nest’.

The view is spectacular, especially of the Adula massif and the valley floor.

Return back along the same route to enjoy some good local food or a cool beverage at the Gorda hut, comfortably seated on the terrace while letting the children play in the surrounding meadows.

During the winter, follow the groomed trail from Pianezza or Camperio to first reach the hut and then the summit.

In the summer and autumn, stargazing nights are held at the hut and a new astronomical observatory will soon be built.
