A completely flat path within the Valdillasi. To the west, it runs alongside the bed of the Progno Stream, and to the north, the town of Donzellino.
Notable points of interest include Villa Bertani, with its tower rising majestically in the plain of the valley, now home to a winery, and the Sanctuary of Santa Maria della Pieve. The "Tent of the People of God," as named by Father Turoldo, one of the most important theologians of the 20th century, who had a special bond with this church, represents a rare example of Romanesque architecture, famous for its partially preserved medieval murals and a Romanesque bell tower with biforas and pinnacles that rises above an older building.
A historical rarity is the discovery, beneath the floor, of the remains of a pagan temple dedicated to Mercury, on which the Pieve was built.
