Long route but fully marked along the Bertoldo trail.
The starting point of this itinerary is the square of San Francesco, fraction of Roverè Veronese, where it is possible to leave the car.
Follow the provincial road leading towards Valdiporro/Bosco Chiesanuova and after about 300 meters turn right following the indication for contrada Gauli, passing through the houses and follow the signs for contrada Masenello.
Continue along the level path in the woods for about 500 meters until you reach a white road. Keep to the right and continue straight along this road which remains within the woods.
After about 1 km, passing a white chalet “Chalet of the Squirrel” on the right, pass a first gate and reach a second gate that opens onto an asphalted road.
At this point, turn left and continue for 100 meters until you reach contrada Masenello. Cross the contrada and follow the signs for Marianetto - Marian, along an uphill stretch on a white path for about 800 meters until reaching malga Marianetto. Take the asphalt road and continue for 700 meters until you get close to malga Marian. Pass the malga and, continuing on the asphalt road, reach Conca dei Parpari.
Continue on the provincial road for about 2 Km towards San Giorgio and, shortly after the Parparo Vecchio restaurant, turn right following the white road that leads to Malera - San Giorgio.
After about another 2 Km, turn left onto a gently sloping pasture to reach Malga Pigarol, the highest point of the route.
Continue down towards the Spiazzoi, follow the signs for Fondi di Parparo and then return to the junction that leads to Malera. Retrace the provincial road and then continue to Malga Marian. At that point, follow the signs for Gaspari, Masetto and return to San Francesco.
