Orino is the first route of the Paths of Peace, the redevelopment of the Northern Border. Better known as the Cadorna Line, the system of military fortifications protected the Swiss border during the First World War. The municipal route begins at the Orino Fort, at an altitude of 1,139 meters, and extends within the boundaries of Campo dei Fiori Park. In addition to the artillery emplacement, a cannon emplacement on Monte Tre Croci and the remains of overhanging walkways are visible.
