CAI Santicolo bike/pedestrian path
Start from the parish church of S. Giacomo in Santicolo, along the road towards Corteno for a short while, then turn left into Via Genzianella; at the junction take the mix-dirt road on the right, which leads to Moranda. The steepest part leading to Groa starts here. Take the path through the wood and descend until a wooden bridge over the stream Pisol. The bridge leads to a concrete mountain road, which ascends towards Plinas. Continue towards the Fontanea wayside shrine, bear left along the dirt road: you will pass other suggestive lodges before arriving at the Moe junction. Here the path descends once more, leading to the paved road going down from Santicolo to Edolo. Cross the road and return back onto the path, which runs along the canal. Now cross the northern wooded area from east to west, below the village. When you reach the Junior Bike Park, continue along the path, where you'll come to an uphill dirt road that will take you to the road leading to Santicolo, past the wayside shrine of Trealc.
Normal hiking equipment. Trekking boots are recommended.
