The route

From Ponte delle Capre, follow the first part of route 11 through Rizza and Casarotti to Manfron. Complete the route 12 loop over Singìo, then return from Manfron through Mondonovo and Sagno to the bridge. The name recalls a character in Umberto Matino’s novels set in the valley.

For route 13, Pro Loco publishes 15.8 km, 5 hours 45 minutes and 550 m ascent. We use these complete-loop figures rather than simply adding the other two routes, whose measurements describe different combinations.

This long outing includes the unprotected exposed sections of the Singìo trail. Fitness, sure-footedness, a head for heights and mountain footwear are needed. This description does not replace a CAI classification. Choose dry, snow-free ground and stable weather.

The photograph shows Enna and the Val Leogra landscape. It provides valley context rather than depicting sections of this trail.

Stories along the way

Ponte delle Capre’s history also accompanies the start of the Brunelli trail. The restored bridge and its legends offer a cultural pause before the walk. This story is shared with Mondonovo, while Brunelli retains its own loop, walking time and ascent.
