CTT takes you to the trails.
Trail No. 572 had been abandoned for years before being recently reopened by the Municipality of Monterosso. Formerly known as Trail No. 14A, it connects Monterosso to Trail No. 591; at this junction, it exits the National Park and continues toward Levanto.
The trail begins at Sella di Bagari, located between Monte Focone and Monte Negro. It descends from Trail No. 591 through a forest consisting mainly of tree heath and maritime pines, offering views of the Cinque Terre coastline. The vegetation is generally low-growing, interspersed with a few majestic oaks and holm oaks. Initially, the ground is soft and the path somewhat undefined due to infrequent use, but after about 400 meters, the track enters a shallow sunken section where the surface is more compacted. The gradient is moderate to easy in the final stretch as the trail crosses cultivated land. After 1.5 km, the trail joins a dirt road—which later becomes paved—and ends at Via Mesco in the Fegina district of Monterosso.
