Lavender lavender lavender lavender

Very particular terrain where to run our fat wheels

Challenging ramp due to mud

Very nice to cycle on these roads in the month of June, colors that mix in a wonderful mix.

A pleasant surprise awaits those who believe that the sight of blooming lavender fields is the prerogative only of France. In Piedmont, precisely in Sale San Giovanni, the month of late June transforms the hills of the Bassa Langa, in the Province of Cuneo, into a symphony of colours. The vibrant purple of lavender intertwines with the luminous green of new leaves, offering a spectacle of unparalleled beauty.

Leaving Gottasecca, continuing towards Saliceto you arrive at the suggestive clearing of the sanctuary, a truly beautiful place, ideal for stopping and for refilling with water (there is a fountain near the church). The area is surrounded by greenery, pleasant because it is secluded, shaded and quiet, it is also an important crossroads of paths, both coming from Gottasecca (some of Gottasecca's "mountain bricks" reach here), and heading towards Camerana. Others start from here and descend towards the Uzzone valley or, keeping parallel to the ridge, end up above Saliceto. the track that I followed is precisely a forest track, quite well maintained, which with some ups and downs leads to the vertical of Saliceto, to then continue, going up a stretch, up to above Cengio. The only contraindication when it has rained recently... there is a lot of mud!

Monesiglio Bistro della Filanda: very good food

Nice panoramic place on the old provincial road between Millesimo and Montezemolo, recently enlarged, ideal for a refreshment stop or to take a look at the landscape.
