ヴォッティニャスコのおすすめツーリングルート

Villafalletto Castle dates back to around the year 1000, but was completely rebuilt around 1150, only to be demolished in 1537 following a treaty. Since then, the ruins have remained there, between the village and the Maira River. You can get there either from the main square, taking the right side street, or by continuing straight along the road that enters Villafalletto from Savigliano. From the traffic lights, the ruins are clearly visible. It's worth making a short detour to see them. -- [Ruins of Villafalletto Castle]

A stretch of road connecting the Rossana pass to the town of Busca, an alternative route to the provincial road and the road along the Maira. It offers stunning views of the plain and the Alps in the distance—as well as a lovely glimpse of a nearly hidden valley behind Busca, the existence of which I was unaware.

Beautiful chapel, slightly set back from the main street of Costigliole Saluzzo. Neoclassical structure with baroque embellishments (the rose window with an almost floral shape), polychrome decoration, and the old city in the background. Suggestive.

Ancient gateway to the city, with a beautiful Gothic arch in the mixed stone and brick masonry structure. From the outside it is inserted in a continuous belt of ancient houses; from the inside, it is accessed by a narrow street in turn flanked by the same ancient houses. Very picturesque.

Beautiful town, with a historic center enclosed in three streets (which manage to be a maze of no entry signs).

Busca is a town at the foot of the morainic hills between the Maira and Varaita valleys. Precisely because of its position, it boasts a mild climate that has been appreciated since ancient times. The name appears for the first time in a document dating back to 1123. The town develops around the ancient historic center surrounded by walls, partly still visible.

The Tower of Attissano, originally known as the Tower of Pignolo until the 15th century, is a medieval structure located in the countryside of Attissano, in the municipality of Busca, Piedmont. Built with river stones, the tower initially served as an observation point. In 1759, on its truncated base, the bell tower of the rural chapel dedicated to San Bernardo was built, creating a unique architectural combination that unites medieval and religious elements.

Villafalletto, located in the heart of the province of Cuneo, is a charming village known for being the birthplace of Bartolomeo Vanzetti, a famous Italian anarchist unjustly convicted in the United States in the 1920s. The village offers a historic center full of architectural testimonies, among which the Parish Church of San Giovanni Battista stands out, an example of Piedmontese Baroque art. The streets of the village are characterized by historic buildings that tell the local history and centuries-old traditions. Villafalletto represents an ideal stop for those who want to immerse themselves in Piedmontese culture, discovering the stories and traditions that have shaped this community over the centuries.
