Beautiful, pleasant and relaxing excursion even in the fog.

unmissable panorama

Bizarre dark rocks. Something different and truly worth seeing.

The place is very beautiful, there are points where the path is not passable due to bad maintenance, especially at the beginning we turned back and by extending the route we managed to complete it.

Suggestive and interesting rocks of black conglomerate. The view of the Rio Gargassa canyon is beautiful

Popular legends linked to its origin and age gather around the Rovere di Tiglieto. In fact, it was said that it had been planted by Napoleon's troops during the Italian Campaign. Other sources report that a horseshoe bearing the symbol "N", the imperial monogram, was nailed to the trunk of the plant. It is said that a Dragoon of the French army, passing through the area and forced to change his horse's shoes, wanted to leave a sign of his passage. Some old people in the town say that as children they saw iron sticking out of the trunk. Today, on the surface of the trunk, there is no longer any trace of it, perhaps completely incorporated into the bark.

Ring of the Badia di Tiglieto is a suggestive itinerary between woods and the bank of the Orba stream. At this point there is a medieval bridge with a centuries-old oak. Splendid gorges and waterfalls can be admired along the way.

The Val Gargassa canyon offers breathtaking views of the blackish-brown canyons and rocky towers. Path with some exposed passages and fixed ropes. Access from Rossiglione through the path from Gargassino, three yellow marks arranged in a triangle. Sulphurous spring with concretions and a faint smell of sulphur. Return path with scenic views of the Val Gargassa and the Stura valley. Recommended all year round, except after days with heavy rain and thunderstorms. https://www.parcobeigua.it/iti_dettaglio.php?id_iti=3433
