Loop between Mucciòn and Faedo
This circular route connects two of the most characteristic trails of the hills between Monte di Malo and Valdagno. The route starts at the chapel of “Mucion,” a small rural building nestled in greenery above Monte Magrè, accessible from Valdagno or Novale. From here, follow the dirt road that goes into the woods towards Passo Zovo. From the Muccòn locality, take the Sentiero dei roccoli which leads to Faedo.
The return is along the Lora trail

After about 1 km you encounter the first roccolo, still well recognizable by the circular shape of the clearing.
Upon reaching Contrada Pozzoli, leave the Sentiero dei Roccoli to follow the signs towards Monte Faedo.
Alongside the mountain you arrive at Faedo locality, where you can take a break, also enjoying the bruschetteria present.
The return starts by reaching Contrà Milani and from there leave the road and follow the path that first leads to Contrà Soglio and then again onto the Sentiero dei Roccoli.
