Caratteristica: Adatta come prima ferrata

The Ferrata del Partusac is an easy way to Civiasco, in Valsesia (Vercelli). It takes place above all in climbs, with a traverse and a vertical wall well equipped in the final, a little exposed but not difficult; interesting from the landscape point of view, is often traveled in succession to the nearby Ferrata Falconera.

For the only partusac it is advisable to start from Civiasco: at the entrance of the village take the road Piandellavalle and park in the square on the right. Starting point on Google Maps. From the chapel of Pian della Valle you take the path 636B in the woods, you ignore the first two bivores and the third you go left on the 636C until the attack (20' from the parking lot). Starting from Varallo you climb on 636A until the junction with 636B at an artificial pond, then 636B and 636C until the attack (40'); who arrives from the end of Ferrata Falconera reaches the attack in 5'.

The road begins with a downhill stretch on a steep path of mixed earth-rock; at the end you continue left in oblique until a first small cave, you descend again and on an easy nod you reach a second cave. It follows a transverse oblique exposure to the right up to an equipped vertical wall that climbs steep, gaining altitude and exposure; you arrive at a grassy terrace and a new vertical wall equipped, then a last floor leads to the end of the street (30' from the attack, about 1h from the parking lot).

Easy Ferrata, from the modest difference in altitude, available in both ways: excellent as first experience for the neophyte or as a continuation of the Falconera for the experienced hiker.

You can go back to the street or follow the path to the forklifts: parking in Piandellavalle you go down 636B until the pond and then 636; for Varallo you follow the 636B until the junction with the 636A downhill.

Almost mandatory matching with the neighbor Ferrata Falconera. Alternatively Picasass Ferrata on Lake Maggiore or the Infernone Path in Biellese.
