    The Central Fort of Melogno, a building built on the hill of the same name, is part of the defensive system located between the upper Val Bormida and the Finalese hinterland wanted by the Royal Army to defend Lower Piedmont and the Ligurian Apennine chain from land attacks from the coast Ligurian. It was built between 1883 and 1895.

      Top point to reach many trails

        The Colle di Melogno (1028 m asl), the scene of bitter fighting between Austria and France as early as 1795, and its fortress of the same name, built by the Italians in the 19th century, once played an important role as a strategic protection and defense zone. Today wonderful MTB tours start from here, which lead through the picturesque beech forests of Barbottina.
