One of the defenses around the Briançon. Do you recognize the city streets far below in the valley?

Fort Internet has really crappy WiFi for an internet fortress ;-)

And now seriously? A great former fortress / ruin on top of a mountain with a beautiful 360 degree panorama. The climb up is unpaved and steep from almost all sides. Best to cycle with a mountain bike... or a gravel bike with wide tires. With the latter, off-road experience is an advantage.

The Fort of Infernet, located in the Susa Valley, is one of the fortifications of the region, built between the 19th and early 20th centuries as part of the Italian defensive system against potential French threats. This fort is located at about 2,800 meters above sea level and is strategically positioned to control the surrounding valleys.

The Infernet was designed primarily as a high-altitude battery, with a robust structure capable of housing cannons and a limited crew. Its dominant position offered a strategic view of the valley and important control over the connections between Italy and France. Today the site can be visited, although in not perfectly preserved conditions, and is an interesting destination for hikers and military history enthusiasts
