Passo dello Strofinatoio e passo del Cancellino

We go up the provincial road until we reach Lake Cavone, short stretch on asphalt and after the tunnel that passes above the Tomba slope we find on the left the forest road (CAI 329) that, passing by Rifugio le Malghe (1640 a.s.l.) takes us to Lake Scaffaiolo (1775 a.s.l.).

We follow the ridge trail to the Strofinatoio Pass (1847 a.s.l.) and then descend to the Cancellino Pass (1630 a.s.l.).

From here you prepare to tackle 700 meters of negative elevation gain through a single track (CAI 121) that alternates guided and fast sections with very technical and almost trial-like passages to the Segavecchia refuge. We follow the paved road that, passing through Pianaccio (Enzo Biagi's birthplace), takes us back toward Lizzano.
