    Juillet 2010 dans le sens Serre di val d'Elva/Chiesa di Bellino:
    La trace GPS fait passer par Castres et Laurenti, mais à ce point le départ du sentier pour le col de Bicocca est introuvable. Il est souhaitable de suivre la GTA depuis Serre di Val d’Elva (sentier en crête).

    Vers Pomieri (quelques km avant Ghigo dans le sens Gigho -Lago Verde), le pont a été emporté. Traverser à pied (enlever les chaussures !). Ensuite rester sur le chemin qui longe la rive gauche du torrent.
