トリオーラの峠・トップ20

The summit point for those who climb from Imperia, passing through the Teglie Pass. Here you finally enter the maze of high altitude military roads, and the salt road. The tunnel is only a few meters long, but it connects two watersheds: the valley of the empire and that of the Argentina torrent. What rains here or there ends up in two different watersheds.

As Gian Luca wrote, it's best to drive on Thursdays, otherwise you'll just be swallowing road dust from the vehicles that drive on the gravel. https://youtu.be/zjW_mgeyPfk

panoramic pass

An ancient meeting point for the people of the Rezzo, Impero, and Argentina valleys. From the pass, you can enjoy an incredible view; I recommend using an app to identify the peaks to orient yourself (e.g., PeakFinder, free). This wide, grassy saddle between Mount Arborea and Cima della Donzella is almost certainly the one mentioned several times by Italo Calvino in his novel "The Path to the Spiders' Nest."

The pass, actually just across the border, is the only way to get from the Monesi valley to the French side and the only cycle path.

Beautiful pass where you have to decide whether to go towards Monte Monega or Teglia Pass

The Tanarello pass rises on the border between Italy and France, at an altitude of 2,045 metres. It connects Val Roia in France with Val Tanaro in Italy. From here you can quickly reach Mount Tanarello and subsequently Mount Saccarello, one of the highest peaks in the area. The area offers dirt roads and trails, all great for running.
