Route
Excurtion starts from St. Quirico Church (known for its beautiful Romanesque belfry), easy reachable from Dervio railway station. Hence via ai Monti, a nice mule track that ascends the mountain, starts. It leads to some deli gthful places on the north-west slope of mount Muggio. In these villages there are various mountain huts, that used to be barns or farmsteads.
Going up the trail, we arrive at the entry of Falesia della Maliga, a rock dimbing gym built by CAI Dervio. We then go beyond a little chapel and reach Pianezzo (380 m), with its huts surrounded by green meadows.
Right beyond Pianezzo, taking a path on the right of the mule track, we come to Mai (402 m). Here, above the rocky cliff overlooking Dervio, we find Castelvedro ruins (V-VI centuries) and can admire the Amazing view over Dervio and Lake Como.
Proceeding along the flat path and going Beyond a chapel, we pass through the huts and reach a steep trail that offers panoramic views above Dervio, the lake, Mount Basso (585 m) and Cangiago (672 m). 
The trail climbs alongside a stream that forms small waterfalls and pools of crystal clear water here and there, among well-kept meadows and charming mountain huts. We reach Pratolungo's farmsteads (924 m); the view is really beautiful from here. Following the path, we arrive at the pasture of Pratolungo; going left beyond the “casera” (a cheese factory) we take the path that leads to Camaggiore pasture (1210 m); during summer we can see cows grazing and we can also reach Monte Muggio's peak (1800 m). 
Our route proceeds towards the residential area of Camaggiore, a holiday resort; in the lower part of the housing unit, we take the trail that goes down to Noceno (852 m). 
We pass through the village and take the path behind the cemetery, coming back to Pratolungo and then to Dervio.
