Itinerary (from Cardu)
The trail starts between the houses, at the level of a property where there are palm trees. The beginning of the path is shaded and continues on a road to the left. Follow the direction of the white-pointed wood panels and climb the steps to a small gazebo. Walk along a stone wall and cross a trail before starting a second trail. Warning: normally, the path continues opposite, but it is possible that it is invaded by brambles. If this is the case, go up the trail to a spring (dry). Turn left and walk along the wall to a renovated sheepfold. Here is a spring protected by 5 huge trees. Pass at the foot of a rocky peak and in front of a beautiful fountain from 1941. You'll arrive at the first glacier, while the second requires a detour.
