    Tips

    The Saline pass is an Alpine pass located at over 2,100 meters above sea level, which offers magnificent panoramic views. During the climb towards the top of the Saline, on the border between the Ellero valley and the Tanaro valley, the path follows a suggestive path on the ridge.

    As its name suggests, in times past the Saline pass played a significant role as part of the "Via del Sale", a route used to transport precious salt from Liguria to lower Piedmont. This ancient trade route follows a Roman road built in the 1st century BC, which connected Alba to Albenga.
