Now the path is nearly flat and passes through the Dosso dei Signori (crossroad with 247path going down to Pagliari), and the “dei Frati” Valley (cross 236 path going up to the Aviasco Pass) Finally  you reach a creek. Ford and go up to meet the dirt road coming from Carona and leading quickly to the Fregabolgia Lake.
