Descrizione
From the center of Traves you go down, passing through Case Perino (613 m), and through stretches in the wood, you come to Hamlet Biò di Traves, near the railway station, after having crossed the pedestrian bridge. From the Provincial Road n. 1, in front of the bridge of Traves, starts the path n. 351B, and then n. 351A, that first goes up amid woods ,and then leads to the Sanctuary of Sant’Ignazio (970 m). From the Sanctuary, the path descends first to Gisola (854 m) and then to Pessinetto Fuori (639 m) on the part of the path n. 350, called “Sentiero dei Pellegrini”(Pilgrims’ Path). After this, it continues on track n. 335, and through a wooded zone, you will reach Hamlet Losa, and cross the SP1 once more near the railway station (553 m). From here, you cross a walkway over the Stura di Lanzo, and climb along the path n. 258 through a wood of birch and beech up to the Hamlet Pugnetto di Mezzenile (845 m). This hamlet is known for its Caves - SIC area, and for the peculiar church with double façade. You continue on path n. 202 until you reach Colle Lunelle (1312 m), near the famous training climbing wall. From the pass, you go down following the paths n. 253 and n. 256. You encounter the remains of the abandoned golden mines and you continue up to Colle Pra-Lorenzo (section of the path Frassati). From Colle Pra-Lorenzo (1388 m), you can climb to the top of Mount Uja di Calcante (1614 m) along the track n. 253A, and then descend along the opposite ridge on the tracks to Colle della Cialmetta (1305 m); or reach the same pass continuing half-coast along the line n. 135A. Here it is possible to stop at the present historical structure and, for those who want to walk the variant 2/1, it is advisable to contact in advance Viù tour operators who will reach you by car at Colle della Dieta to accompany you to their accommodation facilities. For those who do not want to follow the long variant, we recommend going along the path n. 204B that reaches the Colle della Dieta (1538 m) and then descends passing near small villages up to the Hamlet Tornetti di Viù (1151 m) where there is organized a stage place in private accommodation.
