ヴォルピャーノの洞窟・トップ7

The tower represents the only surviving part of an ancient medieval castle in the city of Chivasso.

If you go up from Gassino, along the Sp 97, you travel along a beautiful road with never excessive slopes, which winds through a beautiful countryside, even the traffic is not excessive. Very beautiful the view of the surrounding hills, suggestive the castle.

Castle now seat of the town hall

One of the hamlets of San Sebastiano Po where the town hall was once located. Nice view over the plain.

Castle born, as often happens, for defensive purposes in the thirteenth century and belonged to the Biandrate family for centuries. At the moment, after being converted into a country residence, it is owned by the Municipality and houses its offices.

Frazione Villa where the ancient castle of San Sebastiano da Po stands, dating back to the early Middle Ages.

Nice climb in the hills behind Gassino. Beautiful road with little traffic, never exaggerated slopes (maximum 8-9% for a few hundred meters) and with a beautiful view of the surrounding hills. The first 7 km are slightly uphill, with some rinsing, the remaining 4 km are a bit more demanding. At the top, in the Cinzano square, there is a fountain and a SMAT dispenser with free and sparkling fresh water (for a fee of € 0.05 for 1.5l with card).

Duretta but not impossible even for a rookie like me!
