I Pian, from Outrefer

Introduction

On the heights of the envers of Donnas, an interesting route winds its way up the slope to the village of Pourcil. The hike is extremely scenic and suggestive: it is particularly appreciated in the spring months, when the snow gives way to greenery.

Description

From the car park towards the village of Outrefer until you come to the first yellow arrows; turn left and walk up a short lane until you come to a small road again: a few metres and you come to the beginning of the trail. The first section of the trail leads the hiker to the foot of the rocky prominence above the village of Outrefer; having left some meadows, one enters the predominantly chestnut forest and reaches the beginning of the infamous steps. The path starts to the right and then, after turning left, begins to climb up the forest with a series of twists and turns until reaching a characteristic barma. A little further on, you temporarily exit the forest (splendid views of Donnas) and now continue southwards in the direction of the Fer valley. Continue along the lovely mule track, which in open sections allows you to appreciate the wild Fer gorges.
