Pass through a part of Castelnuovo' s center until the sign of the village of "Torrite". Shortly beyond this sign, there's a little bridge on your right: pass on it, then, immediately turn left: now you are in the new residential area of Torrite. After the last house, before the little soccer field of the village, there is a road climbing on your right.A little sign indicates "Pasquigliora". That's the way to Pruneta di Sopra: you will see a little bridge with wood parapet on your left. Pass on it. The road is strongly climbing now. Pass the following 2 houses (the first on your right afer 50 metres from the bridge; the second is near few meters ahead: there's a metal fence on your left immediatly after a little corner) .Go on driving for 100 meters: you will see a nice open sky field. Near there's a cement road climbing on your right. Compliments! You have arrived in "Pruneta di Sopra's estate. |
