Hiking
The trail is very difficult to find, starting from the first water crossing, but especially between points 4 and 5 (note: I hiked in the opposite direction). I lost the route several times and had to climb very dangerously to finally reach the cave!
Komoot didn't clearly indicate the route, and the hiking GPS also showed this route...
So extra preparation is necessary!
A truly beautiful area!

The Orrido di Foresto Reserve, established with the aim of protecting the prickly juniper, extends for 200 hectares in the territory of the municipalities of Bussoleno and Susa. It includes the stupendous ravine excavated by the Rio Rocciamelone and the neighboring limestone bastions alternating with xeric prairies.

Hiking
Certainly the most spectacular (and one of the most strenuous) point of the itinerary is the stretch of path from the base of the gorge up to the second milestone (they are clearly visible from below). You climb a path with stone paving (rather slippery in case of rain) that passes near a couple of cliffs, before the traverse towards the juniper path, the view over the Susa Valley is spectacular
