Start
Destination
Turn-by-turn directions
When you reach the village of Lases, take the first road to the right in the direction of the Buche di Ghiaccio biotope, which soon leads onto a forest road through the short Val Scura valley. At the Val Scura crossroads, we continue straight ahead on asphalt in a northerly direction, until we join the provincial road and continue towards the village of Albiano. When you reach Albiano, before the square you take a road to the left that leads to a short, steep path to Spiazzi, from where, crossing the Pian Fogolar porphyry quarrying area, you continue on an asphalt road, steep in places, in the direction of Lake Santa Colomba, in the heart of the Argentario Eco-museum in one of the medieval quarrying areas of galena argentifera. When you reach the lake (refreshment stop), follow the numerous signs and follow the dirt track along the northern shore of the lake and into the woods towards Doss dei Brusadi (trail 473) to then descend towards the locality of Pian del Gacc on a beautiful trail that offers a descent that is at times technical due to the presence of numerous stones and roots. After returning to the asphalt road and passing Pian del Gacc, descend in the direction of Fornace until, near a hairpin bend, you enter the quarries in the direction of Doss del Vent, where the descent begins towards Lake Lases below, where the route ends.
