Varzi salami needs no introduction.

The small sacred monument we encounter on Monte Carmo is perhaps the perfect place for a brief moment of reflection. A few years ago, Christiane Völkel commented on the wonderfully fitting sentence by the Italian poet Francesco Petrarch (who lived in the 14th century), "Everywhere one has heaven above oneself," as follows: "What is the use of prayer? This question moves me (...) I have found for myself the answer and the certainty that when I pray I am with the Lord, or rather, that when I pray he is often noticeably closer to me than usual. Thus, I retain the possibility of pouring out my heart to him (...) This intimacy with him makes me believe in him."

Doable with a gravel bike?

The most famous crucifix in Italy is not found on the tops of the mountains, although of course there are many summit crosses all over the country, such as here on Monte CARMO, but in literature: The author Giovanni Guareschi, spiritual father of the protagonists 'Don Camillo' and 'Peppone', has included another main character in his stories - which are well-known and popular far beyond the country's borders: the crucified Christ, who speaks to Don Camillo from the high altar. The author himself makes the following comment on this: "So you have to explain: if the priests feel insulted by Don Camillo, they can smash a candlestick on my skull for all I care; if the communists are insulted by Peppone, they can break a club in two on my back; but if someone feels insulted by Christ's speeches, there's nothing you can do. Whoever speaks in my stories... is my Christ, that is, the voice of my conscience. My personal business, my affair. And therefore: each for himself and God for all.” (G. Guareschi)

Monte Chiappo (1700 m above sea level) is a large grassy mountain, vaguely shaped like a large pyramid, which rises on the main axis of the Ántola Chain. The Stàffora and Curone streams originate on its northern side; for this reason, near the summit the mountain range divides into three buttresses: the easternmost one divides the Stàffora Valley from the Trebbia Valley, rising further into Monte Lésima; the central one heads north, forming the watershed between Stàffora and Curone, while the western one, on which Monte Ebro stands, separates the Borbera Valley from the Curone Valley. The summit of the mountain is the meeting point between the regional borders of Piedmont, Emilia-Romagna and Lombardy.

Located on the top of the mountain, an excellent refreshment point a few steps from the chairlift station
