Resiutta - Prato - Monte Plagna - Monte Ruschis

The route starts in Resiutta and follows the paved road up through the Resia Valley; take a sharp left at San Giorgio, pass through the town, and after 8 km, turn left toward Prato di Resia. In the town square, take Via Chiusaforte, and at the next intersection (8.5 km), take the forest road to the right (CAI 638). The surface is even, but the first section is steep until the 11-km mark; continue on flat ground until you reach a crossroads with a crucifix. Turn left toward Stavoli Ruschis; the trail winds up and down with wonderful views until the 15-km mark, where a challenging but short climb toward Monte Plagna begins, Descend again, and after passing the trail leading to Ruschis at the 18 km mark, continue descending toward Resiutta on compact, fairly steep terrain until you reach the paved road taken on the way there.

Paved 42% – Dirt 58%, moderately challenging.
