Spectacular itinerary on the eastern side of Lake Idro between the villages of Vesta and Baitoni (Brescia). Water-haired Cenge, a suspended bridge with wooden axles and some rocky balconies make up one of the most panoramic equipped paths of Lake Idro, accessible in both directions.
The starting point is La Busetta beach in Vesta, on the eastern shore of Lake Idro (BS). You cross the village to the point where the road bends towards the lake: in the deck you park and you notice the metal pole with directions for the paths. From the parking lot follow the path to the north passing near the rock gym Corna di Fenere. At the crossroads continue straight to the Dosso della Madonnina (20' from the parking lot), where the path starts.
The first section of the Sasse Path descends towards the lake with a hand-rail cable on the right, then an exposed nod leads to a vertical wall with brackets optimally positioned for the descent. You enter the most suggestive section: a long nod with some rocky leap and a non-hard traverse travelled by water. You reach the suspended bridge, stable with wooden boards, which also represents the first escape route (50' total). After the bridge you go up an easy vertical wall with metal frames and continue on salt-and-scends carefully to two descents equipped with a cross with dry rock. A passage on logs through a fragrant canal closes the stretch equipped to the white sign of Baitoni (1h50' total).
Easy. The suspended bridge is solid and well equipped. Attention to the two descents equipped with slippery soil.
April - October. Avoid with rain for the slippery bottom on the cenges. The route is well marked in both directions.
From the end of the equipped path, continue north on the path to the swamp of the Path of the Contrabbandieri (or Sentiero dei Tralicci), which returns to Vesta at a higher altitude, reconnecting to the junction and then to the parking lot.
In the surroundings of Lake Idro there is the Ferrata delle Ginestre, la Ferrata Fregio e la Sentiero Attrezzato alle Cascate di Idro.
