How to get there See the description for Colle dei Morti (Colle Fauniera). The Colle del Vallonetto is between Colle dei Morti and Colle d’Esischie. They are all very close to each other and as the road goes down to Colle d’Esischie if you come from Colle dei Morti, you can easily miss the sign for this pass going that way.
Other comments There is a view into the valley where a rough road goes to Passo Gardetta (a bit too rough (R2) for a racer as I understand, unfortunately). That road looked very attractive with red sand at the beginning and going out in the wild mountainous valley ahead (but it was raining a lot upon my visit). The rough road starts at Colle di Valcavera on the other side of the Colle dei Morti.
