An easy difficulty route that leads via a comfortable cycle path to the San Leonardo ponds in Vermiglio.
Starting from Ossana, this easy circular route runs along a cycle-pedestrian path to the picturesque San Leonardo ponds, where in summer you can take a short break to enjoy a picnic in nature or simply let the little ones play on the slides and swings in the meadows surrounding the ponds. The route then continues with gentle ups and downs until reaching the Cortina di Vermiglio hamlet and returns to Fucine.
