カスティーノのおすすめライド

Very short climb with easy gradients, the views are stunning.

Excellent refreshment point

Wonderful nut shop – located on a very scenic route toward Bossolasco and worth a trip. Friendly service. Stylish shop and sensational nut ice cream.

Bronze sculpture of excellent workmanship.

On a promontory next to the road, in a beautiful panoramic location, is a picnic area with numerous stone tables and benches. At the top of the area is a bronze statue of a woman from the Langhe, immortalized in her domestic activities (specifically, kneading bread), a work by sculptor Marco Gallo (sic) and inaugurated in 1989. At the entrance to the area is a drinking fountain. It's a nice spot for a break and perhaps a picnic—just keep in mind that fires are not permitted, so no grilling.

A beautiful fountain with drinkable water, characterized by its blue structure. There are benches to sit on. A nice place to stop for a break.

An essential stop to stock up on water. Very delicate.

Bossolasco is located on a long and panoramic ridge that, starting above Alba, ends near Murazzano, joining the other "panoramic" road, the SP 661 that goes from Dogliani towards Montezemolo. They are both perfect for cycling, with the only contraindication to avoid, if possible, the weekends because then they become "hunting" territory for motorcyclists. The quantity of small roads that go up from the Dogliani/Barolo area on one side and from the Belbo valley on the other allow for countless and satisfying circular tours on roads that are not too busy, the only flaw, the surface is not always impeccable. The view of the Alpine arc is magnificent, on good weather days.
