Itinerary description

Beautiful path with breathtaking views!
The climb to get to the hole I found it quite demanding and a bit dangerous.

Its safier with propper hikking shoes.
Buca del Serpente its a really scary holle about 100 meter deep in the ground.
There is a tax to visit inside the Rocca San Silvestro, but there is a really nice panorama aside from witch is free.
Must go!

    Sentiero bellissimo con panorami mozzafiato!ma la salita per arrivare a buca del serpente l'ho trovata parecchio impegnativa e un pó pericolosa (e la buca del serpente non è niente di che...) cmq gran bel sentiero, consigliato!!

    Schöne Wanderung für den Herbst und Frühling, wunderbare Ausblicke auf das Meer. Nicht immer deutlich ausgeschildert, aber die Beschreibung ist gut. Parkplatz direkt an der Wanderung.

    Percorso molto bello , ma “facile” non direi. La salita (con relativa discesa ) per la buca delle serpente è ripidissima , su sassi , assolutamente non per tutti . Però che soddisfazione !
    Comunque lo ritengo moderato ma a tratti difficile
