2.TRAIL. Piano Battaglia - Monte Mufara Creste della Quacella Length 6 km  Time 3 h

From Rifugio Marini you take the provincial road towards Petralia and, after 200 m, go along the service dirt track used by the local ski resort, which starts on the right After reaching the top of Monte Mufara (1,865 m), on the left you take a path which is rather steep to begin with, it winds through beech woods and goes along the Creste della Quacella, switching all the time from the western to the eastern slope After about 800 m you meet a wide gully that goes down towards the provincial road leading to Polizzi You walk down along the gully until you reach the height of 1,400, and then go northwards along a poorly marked path, halfway up the hillside under the Creste After about one kilometre, the path nears the rocky sides of Monte Mufara and winds on through a number of water-flowing grooves and pleasant beech copses, until you reach the Portella Arena Pass (1,519 m) From here you walk up through a small wood of beech trees and eventually get back to Piano Battaglia.
