The route

The itinerary connects the picnic area of Margherita with that of Betuleto, winding along the trails of the Hills Park. The route, broad in scope, initially develops on a comfortable forest road (trail 907) and then continues through the basins of Val Fredda and Val Persane, first following the Brusacc trail (910B) and subsequently the Roncher trail.

Crossing briefly into the Municipality of Nave, the route intersects the ordinary road coming from Muratello (shared section with routes B and D). Leaving this road shortly, the path, which partially intersects with 911, crosses woods severely affected by recent tornadoes, before reaching the Pozze trail (913) at altitude, where it is possible to admire the Bresciana pond. From here, it continues until it merges with 902B, which leads directly to the picnic area of Betuleto.
