Hiking
On the top of a hill immersed in a splendid landscape of vineyards, stands the Sacro Monte di Crea, founded in 1589. Inspired by the Sacro Monte di Varallo, it was born as a pilgrimage destination and today it is an enchanting place, perfect for walking among the greenery of the protected nature reserve.
Along the route you will encounter 23 chapels and 5 hermitages, among which the evocative chapel of Paradise, dedicated to the Coronation of Mary, stands out. From here, your gaze is lost in a breathtaking panorama that embraces the Alpine chain and the surrounding rolling hills.

The sanctuary of Crea, founded in 1589, is located in the heart of Monferrato, on the top of a hill surrounded by the wonderful wine-growing landscape. The most important artists of the time worked on his religious itinerary inspired by the Sacro Monte of Varallo.
