David Bertrand Path (SDB)

Walk along via Costa for 400 m, then take via Ribetti, ascending for a long stretch up to house number 31. Now leave the paved road and climb the meadow on the right, staying at the edge, reaching the boundary wall of the house above; follow it uphill on the right until you intersect a flat dirt road. Turn right and, upon reaching a gate, start climbing again on the left and soon reach a paved road. Proceed along via Verdi to reach the Vasca Rocca Muretto (aqueduct), beyond which you follow a boundary wall to find the path that climbs to the left of another fence.

Once at Rocca Vautero, leave it on the right. The path initially climbs quite steeply, then on flat ground passes under the Montagnetta, a take-off point for paragliding enthusiasts. The clear trace, which sometimes resembles a forest road, leads to the Infernetto Pass; here a dirt road on the left descends to the Talucco hamlet, while our route turns right and, with moderate ups and downs, reaches the Hermit's Pass.

Now the path turns right and begins to climb steadily, bordering a low wall in its initial stretch. The long ascent ends just below the wide and wooded ridge; after a flat stretch, an equipped area and the underlying Ciardonet Pass are reached. Here the route is temporarily abandoned by descending right along the dirt road which in 20 minutes leads to the Melano/Casa Canada refuge, a stopping point.

Upon arriving at Pinerolo following the A55 for those coming from Turin, continue on State Road 589 heading towards Roletto until you reach the town center.

There are several free public parking lots in the town center

It is possible to continue the route reaching Monte San Giorgio Park (the place where the young man died), up to the Casa Martignona locality in the Municipality of Piossasco.
