Partite da Piazza Dante verso il cavalcavia San Lorenzo che supera la ferrovia; successivamente prendete l’omonimo ponte che attraversa l’Adige, tenendovi a destra. Superato il ponte a destra incontrerete la chiesa di Sant’Apollinare è subito dopo le Gallerie di Piedicastello (ex gallerie autostradali trasformare in museo). Proseguendo nel piccolo borgo di Piedicastello, mantenendo sempre la destra, vedrete un cartello (Doss Trento - sentiero dell’acropoli) che indica una scalinata che vi porterà sul sentiero. Da qui proseguite fino a raggiungere la piccola strada asfaltata che porta in cima al Doss e proseguite seguendo la salita. Si raggiungerà una breve galleria (240m). Appena usciti dalla galleria lasciate la strada e prendete il sentiero-scalinata a sinistra. Durante questo breve tragitto, che vi porterà in cima, vi sono diversi punti panoramici con vista su Trento e la valle dell’Adige. Arrivati alla sommità del Doss troverete subito l’inconfondibile il monumento a Cesare Battisti. Sempre in cima vi sono anche i resti (fondamenta) di una basilica paleocristiana ed, ancora, ottimi punti panoramici. Si ritorna, con meno fatica, attraverso la strada (facile da trovare: l’unica che parte dal monumento) che porta anche al museo storico degli Alpini. Dopo alcuni tornanti si raggiunge l’ingresso principale al Parco e si ritorna verso il centro città riattraversando Ponte San Lorenzo. Si prende poi, per un breve tratto, il lungo Adige per poi imboccare, a sinistra, il sottopassaggio della ferrovia di via Verdi che vi porterà direttamente di fronte al Duomo. Raggiunto il Duomo voltare a destra verso la famosa omonima piazza (cuore della città) e imboccate poi via Belenzani. Alla fine girate a destra, brevemente, in via Manci e proseguite poi a sinistra per via Alfieri e vi troverete, poco dopo e nuovamente, in piazza Dante. Un percorso facile di poco più di 5 km, ricco di punti panoramici e pregno di storia.
