パルコナチュラルリージョナルディブリックタナのおすすめツーリングルート

beautiful tour

The parish church of Montezemolo, located a little outside the town center, on the road to Alba, enjoys a picturesque setting, nestled between the road and the woods, and offers a beautiful view.

A small village, but an important road junction: here, the Panoramica delle Langhe (from Montezemolo to Alba) and the provincial road from Ceva to Altare and Savona meet. At the intersection (roundabout), a bar is very popular with motorcyclists and cyclists. Inside, on the Panoramica road, are several ancient buildings, including, somewhat hidden, the Town Hall and the chapel next to it. The village deserves some attention.

A beautiful mountain church, with a typical portico structure. The mixed masonry construction, partly dry stone and partly brick, is interesting.

A small park centered around a giant bench and a heart-shaped sculpture. Picnic tables and a recently built café with restrooms are available. Unfortunately, there's no water fountain, but given the location, that's understandable. Beautiful views of the surrounding hills.

Artificial lake. At the bottom there are still remains of an old village that emerge in times of great drought or when the lake is emptied for maintenance. Used for water sports, kite surfing, canoeing, and for a triathlon competition.

A breathtaking view from here over Lake Osiglia and the surrounding mountains.

From Prunetto the road to Gottasecca, after a "soft" start, becomes steep. It is a hundred meters of tiring climb, but once you reach the "La Curma" area the panorama that opens up repays every effort. An overall view of the Alpine arc, which includes a good portion of the Maritime Alps, his majesty Monviso and, towards the North, the mountains of the Susa and Lanzo Valleys, behind the Vanoise, still beyond the Gran Paradiso... you just need to "hit" a beautiful sunny day. The little road continues for a few km alternating between the Uzzone Valley and the Bormida Valley, before descending to Gottasecca.
