Are completed, but the way there is beautiful

The "Dragon's Breath" is a large cavity between the rocks protected by a grill from which a light breath of air comes out. It is a bit hidden, it took me a while to find it. Once you reach the viewpoint you have to go down the steep path marked with the sign for the "Dragon's Breath". As soon as you see a blue sign on the rocks stop going down and take this path on the left, and after a few meters you will reach your destination. On windy days you might not hear this hiss of air coming from the cavity

To be precise, it is called the Sanctuary of San Maurizio and Madonna degli Alpini, and is located on top of the promontory overlooking the Cuneo plain. At the base of the steps we find the tombstones of various Alpine soldiers who fell in the war. Further ahead of the Croce degli Alpini, there is a tower that acts as a panoramic balcony

a tough climb rewarded by a place of peace and silence

Beautiful cave to see

In case of bad weather, be careful not to stand under the rocks

Pay attention to falling rocks in case of precipitation

The cave, well known in the area and famous for its size, is located at the base of the Balmarossa rocks, at the head of the valley of the river of the same name, at the top of a clearing among the dense coniferous forests.
