The route winds up from Agarone to the locality Ditto (also called Monti di Ditto). From here, less than 5 km remain to the destination. Just below Monti di Motti, on the left, there is a bench from which you can enjoy a wonderful view of Lake Maggiore. At Monti di Motti, you will find the Osteria Grotto Monti Motti, a small lake overlooking the Verzasca Valley, and a church. From here, the hiking tour to Monte Sassariente begins, and the return to Gerra Piano follows the same path.
