Geocache Description:

Hikingcache hidden between two old and almost forgotten villages

Start your trip at the parking place near
N 46° 24.509 E13° 10.628

Follow the old donkey-road (until recently none of the two Mogessas could be reached by car) in about 1 to 1.5h to Mogessa di Qua.

The two villages are separated by the deep gorge of Rio del Mulin which takes its name from an old, now defunct mill at the bottom of the gorge. Thats where the cache is hidden.

Coming from Mogessa di Qua descend the path to its sister village until you can see the ruins of the mill below you. Find the tiny footpath which leads to the mill and search for the cache near the door. You don't have to enter the ruins of the mill - the cache is hidden on its outer side.

The whole roundtrip takes about 3h. If you want a longer hike you could cross the valley of T. Glagno and continue on to Stavoli, another village without roads.
You can find a track of the roundtrip here
Another interesting roundtrip starts is the following route: Parking Place to the first saddle - turn right on steep mountain bike trail to Forca di Monticello and from there follow path 420 and 418 to the two villages.
In the last years some very rewarding mountain bike routes have been established in this area: Il Troi dai Borgs
