From Domodossola, follow the state road to Crevoladossola, passing through Varzo and continue to the border of Iselle and Gondo, in Switzerland. Shortly after the border, leave the state road and take the road that descends on the left and then winds its way up several sharply sloping hairpin bends and climbs steeply into the Zwischbergental Valley to Lake Zwischbergen. Continue towards the valley and reach the fork for the Furggupass. Continue straight until you reach a small bridge and climb up to the left along the hairpin bends of the road, some of which is unpaved, that leads to the village of Possetta.
Do not continue along the path that climbs up to the Tschawiner alpine pastures, but at some houses take the path that heads towards the visible Monscera Pass. The route, which needs to be taken on foot, climbs quickly through the woods, then comes out and crosses some rocky slopes on the hillside and after a last stretch of grass leads to the summit at 2103 m (6900 ft). Go down the opposite side, first on a path, then – after having skirted a small lake – on the road, at times very uneven, which crosses Alpe di Monscera and descends into the woods via several hairpin bends until you reach Alpe San Bernardo after a short climb. From the white church follow the vehicle accessible road that goes down to Graniga, San Lorenzo, Bognanco Fonti and, finally, Domodossola.
