サンベニーニョカナヴェーゼのおすすめライド

Chivasso Bridge, with a splendid view of the Alps

Passage through the historic Cavour Canal

Monument near the initial intake point of the Cavour Canal

The climb isn't too difficult, with gentle gradients until the final stretch, when, with a couple of hairpin bends, the road quickly gains altitude and the gradient becomes steeper. The road is in good condition with light traffic.

Quiet relaxing walk in the shoulder seasons

Very nice view

In reality, this place is not so "flat" because, from when the slopes become less steep to when the descent begins, there will not even be a hundred meters ... but the environment is superb, high mountain, and makes up for the road that, especially towards Frassinetto, is not in such good condition. There is nothing, not a bar, not a fountain ... but it is worth stopping and admiring the splendid panorama. Going up from Frassinetto the slope, after the village, becomes discontinuous and challenging, more gradual if you go up from Colleretto Castelnuovo, where the road alternates beautiful hairpin bends in the woods ... however, it is not a gift from this side either!

Challenging climb from Sassi but ... with calm you get to Superga. Glimpses of Turin and the basilica to pleasantly enjoy the climb 😉
