퐁타닐‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪5‬개의 동굴

Probably built in the Lombard era, it is what remains of the ancient castle, destroyed by the Franco-Savoy troops in 1615, during the war for the succession of Monferrato. The castle had extreme strategic importance as it dominated the road between the Belbo valley and the Bormida valley

The climb that leads from Canelli to Gancia castle passes through splendid vines. This climb is steep at times and was tackled by the 2023 Giro d'Italia women. The Gancia castle is currently a private villa and cannot be visited: on the other hand, the panoramic views are magnificent.

A beautiful climb with some challenging sections, you can reach the top admire a wonderful panorama.

Arranged in clusters on a hill dominating the Belbo Valley, Rocchetta was originally a military garrison consisting of a tower and a castle that was later destroyed. Belonging to the Aleramico Marquisate and then to the Ponzone branch, in 1347 it passed to the Municipality of Genoa, which invested it in Enrico del Carretto. The country has preserved some original structures and also the Baroque interventions, such as the harmonious parish church and the oratory, are well integrated into the urban context.

Climb hard at the beginning but left the city of Canelli flattens slightly. Nice first stretch to do on the pedals and fly
