This itinerary starts from the Santuario Madonna del Feles parking area and winds through woodland and panoramic sections, offering a peaceful walk that is slightly more varied than other “Places of Silence” routes.
The trail begins uphill towards Castel Vigolo.
At the first junction, take the path on the right, which leads to a short stretch of paved road.
Continue to the next junction, keeping right on a gentle downhill for a few metres, then turn left onto a forest road that enters Parco delle Fratte.
Within the park, the route develops into a loop through trees, clearings and cultivated areas.
The final point offers a pleasant open view over Lake Caldonazzo, emerging from the surrounding greenery.
The return follows the completion of the loop, passing by gardens and the “Castagni dei Bambini di Bosentino” area, before reconnecting with the outward route and returning to the sanctuary.
A simple yet well-structured route, ideal for those looking for a nature walk with varied scenery and a rewarding panoramic viewpoint at the end.
