Monte San Vito is the highest peak of the Tortona Hills, located between Valle Ossona and Val Grue. Accessible along a path that is sometimes inaccessible, due to its depth and slope, it offers a magnificent view from the rocky crags where the iconic cross stands (684 m above sea level). Also a crossroads of CAI paths, you can reach the summit with the 124 and 139 of the province of Alessandria.
What interests bikers is the maze of tracks, some dedicated others shared with walkers, which unravel from Monte San Vito, which descend on the north, west and south sides (village of San Vito), connecting with other paths, continuing between Monte Campogrande and Monte Bruzzo, towards S. Andrea but above all towards Sarizzola. Some of these trails were the scene of the Garbagna enduro MTB race, another access point for Monte San Vito (from Val Grue).

It can be reached on foot or by mountain bike, enjoying both a magnificent sunrise and sunset considering the privileged position.
