The Assietta road crosses the territories of the municipalities of Sestriere, Usseaux, Salbertrand, Pragelato, Fenestrelle and Exilles, has a length of approximately 36 kilometers and corresponds to the provincial road 173 of the Assietta hill, which officially passed in 2021 from military state property to of the Metropolitan City of Turin. Running almost entirely on dirt and largely above 2,000 meters above sea level, it was defined by a tourist guide from the 1960s as the "Ride of the Two Thousand".
For off-road and adventure lovers, it is a road that will leave you speechless.

Panoramic military road that goes from Pian dell'Alpe to Sestriere. They are about 30 km of dirt roads at high altitude, always over 2000 meters. All pedaled but requires good training given the important difference in height that is covered
