Itinerary description

Percorso di circa 7 Km, che dalle Ex Scuderie nel cuore del parco della Favorita sale su Monte Pellegrino attraverso il sentiero della valle del porco, a gradoni non semplicissimi soprattutto se affrontati con bambini (meglio se di eta' superiore ai 6 anni). Arrivati in prossimita' del Gorgo di Santa Rosalia (un piccolo Stagno a Maggio 2020), ci si inserisce per un breve tratto di asfalto e si rientra su un sentiero che porta a Cozzo Mandra (sentiero MTB-2), piccolo rilievo sopra Monte Pellegrino da cui poi si scende per raggiungere il punto panoramico sul lato ovest del monte. Discesa per la stessa via (attenzione ai gradoni !)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Route of about 7 Km, starting at the Ex Stables in the heart of the Favorita park climbs to Monte Pellegrino through the path of the pig's valley, with not very easy steps especially if faced with children (better if over 6 years of age). Arrived in the vicinity of the Gorgo di Santa Rosalia (a small pond now in May 2020), you enter a short stretch of asphalt and return to a path that leads to Cozzo Mandra (MTB-2 pathway), a small relief above Monte Pellegrino from which you then descend to reach the panoramic point on the west side of the mountain. Descent by the same route (watch out for the steps!)
