After the demanding Gratarola section, you reach Chegul, with the stoi and emplacements looking towards the Valsugana. Having reached the Spiaz dele Sedole, take path 413, which descends towards the Fontana dei Gai and then to the Busa Granda. From here, path 455 leads back to the Cimirlo pass.

Sector III of the Fortezza covered the northern area of the Marzola, the Cimirlo pass and Mount Celva.
