Routes

Between the two mountain pastures of Our di Fondo and Our di Cima, a dirt road begins that, in about an hour, leads to the scenic grassy balcony of Alpe Granda. Leaving the small hill of Cima di Granda on the left, turn right and climb the pasture to reach the new Alpe Granda refuge (1,688 m a.s.l.).
A trail enters the forest, passing through Alpe Merla and then, after two switchbacks, reaches the central section of the broad Scermendone pasture. This lies along the ridge separating Valtellina from the eastern side of Valmasino. From here, enjoy a spectacular panorama: to the south, the Orobic Alps and much of Valtellina; to the north, the towering peaks of Valmasino; to the east, Monte Disgrazia; and to the west, the mountains of the Costiera dei Cèch.
After passing a small lake near a mountain hut, continue along the ridge to the final destination: the ancient church of San Quirico, locally known as San Cères (2,131 m a.s.l.).
The return route follows the same trail.
