From "Porta di Pian Marchisio" I reached the Porta Sestrera by a good waymarked footpath. From there I followed the easy Pesio/Ellero ridge climbing Cima di Serpentera Sud, Rocche Gaudioline and Cima di Serpentera Nord. Then I descended without real footpath close to the "Lago delle Moie", and after a stretch of the G5B footpath i came bak to "Porta di Pian Marchisio" by my outward way.
