The trails provide the outward and the backward journeys along the same route (apart from the excursion to Mt. Sole and Mt. Caprara summits and the visit to Cerpiano, including ring-route sectors).
The expected duration is only approximate and it includes the stops for the reading, the narration and the debates. On demand one can stop to have one's own packed lunch during hikes lasting more than 3 hours, outside the massacre places. Thanks for your visit!
