ヴィッラファッレット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.

Dedicated to San Defendente and San Grato, a classic rural chapel of these parts, with a very simple structure embellished with some baroque elements, polychrome painting, and some frescoes. Overall, very suggestive. Next to it, water point.

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).

Typical chapel with a porch, with a feature: the porch faces a wall, you enter from the side. Detail. Behind the apse of the chapel an interesting old house. At the moment (June 2025) it is for sale, if anyone is interested...
