Cairo Montenotte is located almost at the head of the Bormida Valley, the starting point for reaching Lake Osiglia, the Melogno hill and, continuing towards Savona, the Cadibona hill. It is a beautiful town with a well-preserved historic center, dominated by a castle. By bike, if you continue towards Savona, it is advisable to cross the city center, to avoid getting stuck in the tunnel of the main road.

Ruins of Murialdo Castle easily accessible to all. Just below are the remains of the fortified village. Close by is the church of Santa Maria Maddalena and the sword in the stone (attraction for the little ones).

Finalborgo with the Aquila stream exceptionally in the flow phase; in the background the Castelli S. Giovanni and Gavone (or Govone).

Unfortunately back across the street

Unfortunately, very little remains standing
