P09 - Cicogna - Ponte Velina

Between ancient summer pastures and centuries-old chestnut to explore the southern part of the National Park to reach the last inhabited permanently pasture of the Val Grande

Covering 5.4 km, this is a satisfying walk that most reasonably fit hikers will complete in about 1 hour and 13 minutes.

This linear trail moves from one end to the other without looping back. A return journey by transport — or retracing the path — is needed to get back to the start. The trail is officially waymarked as P09, so look out for the trail markers along the way.

This is a Local Walking Network (LWN) trail — a community-level route perfect for exploring the immediate surroundings, popular with locals and visitors alike.
