ドルチェードのおすすめMTBライド

The village is called Dolcedo!

This isn't the last fountain if you're aiming for the summit of Mount Faudo. In case of emergency, there's another one halfway up the Fratti climb, just after the last house before the Vena Pass: just follow the water pipe and you'll find it. Another one is located just below the summit, between Mount Faudo and Mount Follia, along the descent on the other side.

Dolcedo's late Romanesque bridge, which connected Ripalta with Dolcedo. The adjacent mill and the view of the village are noteworthy. It can be explored by bike.

a stop to load water, ready for the climb!!

here is a memorial stone for the victims, not of the resistance, who died here. Between the top of Faudo and Mount Follia just below in '44 there were several clashes with the SS, led by the infamous republicans, who took advantage of it to point out poor people who could do nothing. As also remembered by a memorial stone on the plain of Mount Follia and as also remembered by the history of Torre Paponi.

famous Marian sanctuary, dedicated to the nearby water fountain (particularly good and always active). It is rarely found open, but you can glimpse it from the side windows. The basin is a masterpiece of Ligurian architecture: the entire square is obtained by means of crossed bridges over the stream below. The Sanctuary is completed by a small village (ancient oil mill, parish house and sanctuary), now privately owned.

Arrival and departure point of many trails and single tracks. The fountain has not worked for years.
