At the arrival of the bus (Verampio stop), take the paved road to Verampio and shortly after turn left to take the mule track that runs along the ancient “Via del Gries”. At the sports field, turn off the road and continue until you reach the last houses, from where the mule track that goes up to Baceno starts. Cross the bridge and continue along the path, leaving on the right the path that leads to the south ravine (Orrido sud) and reach the junction for Balmalcore. Here follow signs for Baceno (“Via del Passo d’Arbola”, H00). Continue on the latter as far as the Monumental Church of Baceno, absolutely worth a visit, and then continue uphill until you cross the main road to the Formazza Valley. A short downhill stretch takes you to the H00a path as far as the Chapel d’la Posa. From here, take the path that descends along the road, continue along a paved stretch and then descend to the right on a stepped mule track that leads to Uriezzo and the Oratory of Santa Lucia. After a short visit to the oratory, return to the fork for Orrido Sud. Paying careful attention, enter and cross the spectacular gorge: with the help of the special stairs, cross it up to the exit, meeting the path and, going along it, descending to Maiesso to admire the “Marmitte dei Giganti”, mighty glacial erosions. Again on a trail, return to the houses near the sports ground in Verampio and from here to the bus stop.
