Sacred Forests - Stop 6: Badia Prataglia – Rimbocchi (VARIANT)

Those who want a shorter route, less "forest" than the wide tour Mandrioli-Serra but more direct, can opt for the following itinerary. You can further shorten the route by staying at the Rifugio Casa Santicchio: the 45 minutes that separate us from Rimbocchi will be to travel in the tapp of the next day, which also will not be too long.

From Badia Prataglia (835 m), descend south-east towards Poggio della Cesta (1113 m) to reach the small village of Frassineta (866 m), preceded by the tiny oratory dated 1876 that faces the beautiful Romanesque church, with monumental hippo-chestnut on the parkland.

From here continue in the direction of Poggio della Forca (876 m) from where you reach the few but pretty houses of Rimbocchi, passing the Rifugio Cà Santicchio.
